The installer says he initially added oil (10-30), then realized it was
already full so he dreww it out. So, it's likely a hybrid. It smelled more
like compressor oil when I flushed the system, so maybe the petro effect is
minimal.
For any interested, Kilby's service has been superb on this setup. You can
scrounge parts to do this for much less money, but they really provide an
excellent setup and information. Also, nothings cooler than just pulling out
a hose and filling up your tires on the trail. I ran an air wrench with it
the other day just to test it, worked like a charm.

You can kiss the seals good-bye, that's just like adding motor oil
to brake reservoir. Unless it was converted to the 134 seals.

Re: Oil in the tires .. Don't Laugh!
Brine or calcuim cloride is added to increase weight for traction & balance
(ie. front loader)
Its much heaver then water & won`t freeze (important)
It does corode wheels in time unless you use tubes.

If memory serves, Kilby recommends SAE30 in the York compressors he sells.
