Mineral oil? Is that similar to air tool oil? I have the same AIM gold valves. They suck. The ones I have in the rear leak UP! I'll lay out and then come back later and the back of the truck is nearly up to ride height again. I'm saving up for some SMC's.

I HATED when my 2way valves leaked, and my truck wouldnt stay down. Dunno what brand they were, but it led me to buying some brand new SMCs that my brother had bought and ended up not needing. For a month or so though, had to keep tapping my switch so i wasn't riding all high..lol annoying as hell

Mineral oil works good Air tool oil works great also for the 2 way valves get in inline oiler and put it on the main line before the valves and fill it with mineral oil.
