Sorry about that! Yes, the Sunison oil yielded about double the 
capacitance of the same capacitor using mineral oil! I had even 
better results once when I tried Pyrin oil, but that stuff is really
nasty! I accidently got a little on my hands and forgot and rubbed my 
eyes, GOD did it burn - I thought I was going to go blind. The 
emergency room informed me that Pyrin oil was notorious for causing 
permanent eye damage so I don't play with it any more.
