Phil, That question should probably go back to the make of the low residue flux. I know that my friends at Kester and Alpha get asked to test compatibility of fluxes to the wierdest things. I have not every analyzed this combination. You should actually be asking two questions: (1) what is the effect of the oil on the flux residue, and (2) how tolerant is the dielectric oil to trace amounts of flux residue without compromising functionality. The second question would have to go back to the maker of the dielectric oil (or earl to our southern friends).
