	I've been running blue blood in my XTR's since april with no problems, however it may be a warranty issue

	In theory, YES!	DiRt DeViL Jan 6, 2004 5:14 PM
	You can use any kind of mineral oil but may void the warranty. Try to use the recommended oil to avoid possible warranty issues. Based on personal experience even baby oil works but use the Shimano oil when available.
