English term or phrase: Tramp oil
Vagabonderande olja? eller vad?
Tramp oil is a term used to describe the oil that originates from leaky hydraulic systems, gearboxes, spindles and also from total loss slideway lubrication systems which are used on many modern machining centres.

Trampolja är en term som används för att beskriva den olja som kommer från läckande hydraulsystem, växellådor, spindlar och även från slidernas smörjsystem som används på många fler operationsmaskiner.

and if the link doesnt work, search in google for the term "överflödig öljy" or "överflödig ölja". It gives a lot of answers about tramp oil in swedish language. Also a common name for tramp oil is "excessive oil".

"Excessive oil" gets 9 100 000 hits in google and
"Tramp oil" only 1 070 000 hits.
