  Do any of these oils contain seal swellers? The motorcycle
fork oil?

  I know, I know, changing the seal is an easy job. But
so is filling the dashpots once a week or so, and I don't
have the urge to put together a parts order just to
get a new O-ring.

  So I was wondering if I could use an oil with a seal
sweller that might help stop the leak, or slow it down.
