[QUOTE="user 19670, post: 1513172, member: 19670"] I worked as a Millwright for over 30 years and have yet to see air causing oil to be milky. Water - yes, air - not that I have ever seen. Also cavitation is something other than air entrapment. Cavitation is what happens when the oil is actually pulled apart or vapourized inside the pump because the suction is partially blocked. It is pulled apart into a vapour and collapses back into a liquid over and over and you can hear the hammering that the pump is taking. Cavitation and air entrapment leave different damage on the impeller. They are not one and the same. [/QUOTE]
