REFLECTOR: RG System hydraulic oil

[Jeffrey Clough]

I used a local hydraulic shop for some help rebuilding my main gear 
hydraulic cylinder after I dinged up one of the seals and caused it to 
leak. (Caused by a drop of epoxy on the shaft)  I asked them if I could 
purchase some add'l  hydraulic oil and if what they had matched my mil 
spec oil....they said,  'Just use ATF' (Automatic Transmission 
Fluid).......they even said they could be mixed with no 
consequences....has anybody heard of this ...or tried it?
