I've always used CE 750 compressor oil. Others suggest various different types of lube, some stating they use motor oil. CE 750 is made for compressors.

CE750 is a good choice. I started with Royal Purple.

When I have used up my supply of Royal Purple I am going to buy this:

Hydraulic oil. Technical standard = ISO46, also called Cincinnati Machine p-70 or the like. You need less than 50 cl for one fill. One liter cost me ~8 Eur Metro in Europe, try Lowe's or even Walmart in USA.

I second the royal purple. that's what I used when I had my pump.

I have been using #46 hydraulic oil and #100 synthetic compressor oil. All are cheap stuff from China. They turn dark quite quickly but after 9 hours of total run time, there is no noticeable problems. This video gives an idea on the extent of wear on the con rod bearing ( actually just a hole in the aluminium ) after 6 hours. Looks OK to me.
