Separate the water from the fluid, or replace the fluid.
Yes, hydraulic fluid can float on water depending on its density. Many hydraulic fluids, particularly those based on petroleum, are less dense than water, allowing them to float on the surface. However, some biodegradable or water-based hydraulic fluids may have a similar density to water and could either float or mix, depending on their specific composition.
How much hydraulic fluid with how much gasoline makes a big difference and was some hydraulic oil mixed into the gas tank or was some gasoline mixed with the hydraulic tank. More info please.
Power steering fluid is a hydraulic fluid and is engineered to do a specific job - it should not be mixed with anything.General purpose hydraulic fluids are used to operate machinery that does not normally race down the highway at 100km per hour with you behind the wheel.There are a few different power steering fluids - Dexron, Mercon, Type F; use the one that is recommended for your vehicle.
A 50/50 mix of water and a good quality antifreeze
Mixing AW46 hydraulic fluid with Case Hi-Trans hydraulic fluid is not recommended, as they may have different additive packages and properties. This could lead to reduced performance, potential equipment damage, and void warranties. It's best to use the manufacturer's specified fluid for optimal performance and longevity of your equipment. Always consult the equipment's manual or a professional for guidance on fluid compatibility.

Not a good idea. Viscosity and thermal properties will be different. They might also react differently with rubber seals, causing them to swell or shrink, which could cause a leak. Best to use the correct hydraulic fluid, or motor oil that was originally intended for the job.
Use Bobcat (Orange) Hydraulic Oil. If you don't have access to this use hydraulic ISO 46 for temps of -40 to 80f. Use ISO 100 for +40 to 120f. 10w30 motor oil will also work in a pinch but try not to mix....go back to hydraulic at next change.
Yes you can. Simply put, DOT4 is a premium version of DOT3, and they will mix. A lot of newer vehicles spec DOT4 in the brake or hydraulic clutch systems, so check to see what your specific application calls for. Quick side note: DOT5 brake fluid is the one that WILL NOT mix with DOT3 or DOT4.
To mix a fluid or chemical with water to make it not as strong.I love bunnies!
You mix it with water.
Yes it does matter. Different hydraulic fluids have different lubrication and thermal properties, they will also react differently to certain rubber seals, potentially causing leaks. You must use the correct fluid specified for the application, with the exception of using a fluid which is approved to mix with or replace the existing fluid you were using. For instance, Mil-H-5606 can be mixed with MIL-H-83282 or MIL-H-87257.
