Trim/jack pump fluid?

[scottyboy]

Whats the best stuff to use? Think "jack" oil is abit thin? Supposed to be about 10w40 viscosity i think but not sure? Dexron atf fluid maybe?

On the formula I use ATF for all the hydraulics.

i've always used jack oil and never had any problems

Yeah i have used jack oil in the past but i found you get alot of pump on run due to the fact that it is thin if you know what i mean? I need something a little thicker! I use atf as recommended by latham on my steering already with no probs!

I was advised to use Quicksilver perfomance 4stroke oil in my Bobs marineshop powerplate , i have used it for about one year now and no problems so far .
