Like I said, the pump would (more than likely) have to be different.

My Little Giant 2-MDQ-SC can handle (I think) a viscosity of 2 cP (twice water), so I assume that all mag drives can handle something in a lower range.

I have peanut oil that I use for frying, and I'm pretty sure that the viscosity is way higher than water, so the pump will have to be different.

I wouldn't dismiss the idea, it is a good one, but given the noise of the required pump, it's gonna defeat a silent objective. But if the pump isn't anywhere near the computer...
