Jim Becker said: (quoted from post at 21:36:14 06/24/09) A lot of sources for hydraulic oil have 2 grades of oil. One is usually labeled "hydraulic oil" with very few if any other claims. The second one is usually more expensive and labeled as compatible with HY-Tran and other higher grade oils. I believe that TSC usually has 2 grades like this. Do you know which of the 2 oils you tested?
I know the difference and it was the THF, not the straight hydraulic. It is indeed listed on the pail as compatible with HyTran, but is not certified in any way by Case-IH. Claiming "compatibility" or "suitability" for OE spec is common in the oil biz, but it may or may not be true in reality. Issue like these crop up most often in the retail store branded oil, (WalMart, K-Mart, Meijer, etc) than they do with oil company branded products. They are usually blended by companies that specialize in such things. They can make great product or price point stuff with the bare minimum of "stuff," It all depends on the contract.
