Thanks guys!!
I expected to get alot of slack from this post, but you guys are great, more supportive then I expected!!
Ideally I will eventually replace the hydraulic oil.
The oil I got for free seems alot thicker, more like a 30wt oil, and they pust alot of marvels mystery oil in it, so I'm not going to use it in the tractor. This is for industrial hydraulic presses and hence the thick weight. The mystery oil thickens it further.
I looked all over in the auto department at Walmart, and nothing, asked 3 dif employees at each store, nothing... I'm in northwest ohio.
As for the digital camera, it is an old sony maciva or whatever. It takes floppies and floppies only. My compuer is all second hand, except my 500gigs of hds. This computer is over 3 years old. Back then I was heay into them and justified the cost. Now my passion is R/C which takes some of my earnings. But as I'm getting older, saving for retirement is more of a priority then anything, so saving money anywhere I can helps.
My tractor drained out 4 gallons of oil, and probably another on the ground, and another half a gallon when I removed the hitch cylindr/hoses.
At $23 for 2 gal at TSC, that adds up to about 69+tax. I'm sure the real hytran from case is alot more..
You think the 3 in one oil is cool? On the second pic, directly behind the drill press (if you were looking at it headon), and to the right of one of the main 4X4's is a few jars of very old quill pen ink. When he's gone, alot of that stuff will go as well (ALOT more here then what you think, there's isles in the house, in the livingroom, poor dogs have little room to play, no wonder they lose going outside =P) Before the hydraulic pump whined with a load on it. I didnt like this and its what prompted me to check the fluid. If removing the water doesnt help, I might consider putting new in.
If all else fails (like the pump), I got a new danfoss hydraulic pump here i can fab up a bracket and a double pulley system and drive it off the crankshaft pulley. Lets hope it doesnt come to that. I'd like to test the system, I can deadhead the pump and test psi, but I dont have the equipment for flowrate. The loader goes up faster then I expected and the cylinders on it are probly 3" bore and 3 foot long, so I'm sure the flow is there.
This is for a 300u.
Recycling oil would not be profitable with my setup =P The end result still leaves alot to be desired. I've never seen the new real hytran, but I'm sure its alot cleaner looking then this.
Also do I have to pull the res cover to chnge the filter? if so is it a cartridge type I'd have to buy, or is it just a metal mesh I can clean and reuse =)
Thanks Guys
