Lucas hydrologic fluid for water pumps??

I swore someone (Lockhart) mentioned using it? Or are most of you using straight non detergent 30 weight?

I always use the pump manufactures fluid. I just bought 2.5 gallons of general pump oil. 85, which is pricey but cheap insurance in my eyes. I also used aeon pd in my blowers.

I run Lucas in everything and that includes mixing it in my pump with oil. Why not, it makes the oil slicker and doesnt break down as quickly. Only time I wont use it is when an engine is breaking in. Its so slick the rings wont seat properly. Great stuff though.

It doesn't go bad on the shelf. I'll have this machine a while so why not buy in bulk. Always been my way. The pump holds 40 oz. you should see how many cases of transmission fluid I have. I also buy my filters by the case.
