119? Standard R & O hyd oil is all you need (about $10/gal)
- what spec oil are you pricing?

No dis-respect to mr fixit but I would change the oil. I just learned a valuable lesson when I had to eat the price of a hoist cyl rebuild- there may be the tiniest of particles in the oil -which- in the long run can destroy cyl packings. I now include a flush & oil change of the hyd system on every hoist cylinder rebuild I do if the customer wants a warranty.
