i use m1 10w30 ep in mine, works well, and seems to do better than a/c oils in the extreme cold. my ingersoll manual specifys either ac oil or auto synthetic 10w30

The reason the non-detergent oils are preferred is that they do not hold moisture in suspension like the detergent oil.

Huh? I thought it was because the pumps are splash lubricated and non-detergent oil doesn't foam.
I could be mistaken though.
