Any suggestions for replacing some liquid in my Ritche Helmsman compass.
I
opened the wrong screws and let some leak out. It may contain a light
oil or
glycerin. Is there a filler port on these compasses? Any suggestions
would be
welcome. I would rather not send it back to Ritche as the compass may
get
damaged in shipment and bringing it to a repair place can tie it up for a
while.

From what I have read that is absolutely not the correct fluid to use.
