I had an old, giant-size Walker that dated back to around 1930. It leaked
pretty good when I got it, so bad that every time I wanted to use it, I had to
"fill it up" first. I started using whatever was at hand, including some SAE40
with a little STP in it. Ironically, that was the last time it leaked for the
next six years. Unfortunately, it was just too big and I swapped it off.
