Would 80w90 gear oil work in a hydraulic jack?

No. Only hydraulic oil can be used in hydraulic jacks. Hydraulic oil is compressed (a requirement for use in hydraulic cylinders) so that there are no air or other gases dissolved in it. Before adding hydraulic fluid to the jack, be certain that the fluid has been sitting for at least 24 hours to avoid introducing air into the hydraulic fluid in the chamber.You should be able to purchase hydraulic oil (sometimes it will be labeled "Hydraulic Jack Oil/Fluid or Jack Oil/Fluid) in small or large quantities, inexpensively, at any auto parts store worthy of the name. It can also be purchased at some Walmarts and any heavy equipment supply stores.
