Corky, I've used the kits with the "compass fluid" and it's easy. Kerosene is fine, and I've even heard of using Varsol. You've gotten good advice on this from everyone else. But..... Do not under any circumstances put your good sippin whiskey in it without having a qualified "whiskey compass fixer" test your fluid! Let me know, I'll be up to test all of your the fluid candidates prior to the actual repair! I like pieces of sausage on Ritz crackers to go along with my fluid sampling - whats compass fluid without a nosh?! I hear they make some good compass fluid in Kentucky!GaryIn Hot, Dry Texas________________________________________________________________________________
