SkyDrol fixes all that but God have mercy on your soul if you get that crap on you! It’s like Satan himself pissed on you!
Oh shit yeah. I was prepping my acft for a mission and hydro troops replaced an accumulator but didn't do the ops check. So I am on the ground and another troop went to the flight station. He turned on the pump and when 3k of pressure hit a cross threaded B nut it exploded and fuckin skydrol soaked my flight suit head to toe and that shit got in my eyes too in spite of ppe. God what a miserable night getting cleaned up. I wanted to strangle the asshole that did that.
 
Had one of those do that to the water hose on my car while I was deployed.
Cute but remarkably destructive. And why they like rubber and plastic is anyone's guess.
I had a buddy who left his pickup at a trailhead for a week long pack trip. When he got back, the pickup wouldn't start. He opened the hood and there was a fresh pack rat nest built on the engine. Long story short, that little prick had eat up so much of the wiring harness that the insurance company totaled it out...

Not sure now but in the old days the coating on the wires had vegetable oil in it and they liked the taste.

That's why we used to say, "I'd rather have a sister working in a whorehouse than an aircraft mechanic for a brother."?
