There is no doubt at all that oil can help slow down corrosion. But there are other things just as dangerous as corrosion and I will say this about the whole issue: BE CAREFUL. Not all seals are the same. Not all seals are created equal. One test on one airplane is proof that what was done worked on one aircraft, and that is all it proves. I have seen with my own eyes (and on my OWN AIRPLANE) where injecting this kind of oil into the air system caused the seals in the cylinder to just simply disintegrate. This resulted in the requirement of using the emergency gear blow-down system, which worked. It worked mainly because the emergency gear blow-down in the YAKS does not have flow restrictors and full pressure all at once was enough to get the gear down with what was left of the seals. My "take it or leave it" unsolicited advice to all of you is this: DO NOT INJECT ANY DARN THING INTO THIS SYSTEM ***IF**** you have old seals that have been in for a long time and you do not know their origin or condition. That is what I did. It was a BAD MOVE on my part. I also know of one other YAK-50 that this happened to as well. Both mine and the other one had original Russian seals. If you want to try this procedure, first rebuild your actuators, get an extra seal or two and dump it into a jar of "whatever" you plan on putting into the system and let it soak for a week or two and see what happens. Better yet... Contact the maker of the seals and ask what happens when you expose them to whatever you plan on putting in there. Whatever you do, don't start putting this stuff into an aircraft that has old seals from Russia. Rebuild them FIRST~!

"Inject" the oil into the hose and than reconnect the B nut. The next time you open the main air valve, the oil is pushed into the actuator. Wa-la you've oiled the actua tor. You can do the same to the up side of the actuator. When you bring the gear-up, air blast the oil into the up side of the actuator. You'll get a fine mist of oil out gear handle, indicating that you've oiled just about the entire system.
