[Healeys] another fluid question

Is regular brake fluid still vegetable based fluid?  If so, I don't think the
vegetable base brake fluid will affect the rubber seals in the Porta Power but
mineral base fluid will definitely mess up a brake systems seals.

Needed to use my Porta Power on a TR6 cracked chassis and realized that it
as low on "oil" I hunted high and low for some "hydraulic jack/ram" oil to
o avail. I had gallons of brake fluid in the shop. ah, are they
nterchangeable?
No specifics in the directions on the ram pump label..
