Oh man, fish oil. We used to work on big capacitors at Honeywell filled with that stuff. Every once in a while one would be installed backwards and blow when powered up. Building evacuation time when that happened. That's a stink right from hell.

Interesting....we use cutting oil here in my shop and after a few months it smells rancid. I thought it was the sulphur in the oil.
When I was a firefighter we used to use triple A foam for oil and gas fires. . It mas made of fish guts and such. I think it was pasturized but boy could it stink, Especially when it got old. You didn't want to get it on your bunkers!
