[V8] Mix Pentosin 11S with Mobil hydraulic fluid?

Assuming you now own 5 gallons of DTE13M, why not just flush all the 11S out and
not worry about mixing? Mixing should not be a problem but the system would be
happier with fresh oil anyway.
I would also suggest adding an inline filter to the rack return line. There is a
suprising amount of gunk that accumulates over time and it can not be good for
seals or pumps.
I used a generic inline transmission oil filter and it seems to work fine.
