Can't find transformer oil?  Join the club.  I've
gotten excellent results with drug store mineral oil,
though it's a bit steep at $1.66 per pint.  I've
gotten equally good results with non-detergent motor
oil and farm tractor hydraulic fluid.  The latter is
available from SAM'S Club stores for $13 per 5 gal
bucket.  I'm using 10 gallons of it in my 5KVA pole
transformer with no problems.

Cheers,

Greg
