1. What oil do you recommend to use on Vacuum pump? I have Challenger 607 pumps.

2. How often do you have to add oil? I understand it depends on how many hours you work them also

3. What brand you recommend for my steering tires? something good for this rough ### oilfield roads that doesn't cost arm and leg!

It seems the demand for drivers is not high at this time, or at least not high enough for inexperienced drivers, but it seems this is company would be willing to train.
