This is only a second opinion, not an argument. My guess is that IH did not have Touch Control fluid ready when when the Cub, SA, and C appeared, thus 10W. Touch control fluid and now Hytran are about 10W, also. Touch Control fluid was probably more of a selling point than anything else. I currently have all parts out of my Super A's reservoir/control block. I don't see any reason that 10W would not work as there simply isn't that much to it, unlike the later hydraulics. Four check valves, a relief valve and a control valve, in addition to the two actuators and two pistons, that's about it. The block is basically clean except for a little sludge in the bottom, maybe hytran aids in preventing that, I don't know. Although only a few parts, I am always amazed at the detailed design of some of IH's parts. I do use generic Hytran in it, simply because that is what is recommended. Having said that, do I recommend 10W? No, not as long as there is something "better".
