<p>Motor oils and hydraulic oils have different "scales".
SAE(scale)20W flows like ISO(scale) AW68 Actually closer to
25W AW68 is designed as an hydraulic oil, and would be preferred
to motor oil. Certainly SAE20 can be used. A better choice would
be the AW68..... available at farm/tractor type stores eg.
Tractor Supply. <br>

<p>You should only add oil to a shock if it shows signs of leaking.
Be careful that you do not fill it absolutely full.... there needs
to be an air space for expansion. Armstrong designed the filler
plugs and locations to make it difficult to overfill, but people
have found ways.</p>
