I bought two 5 gallon buckets of Premium (Traveller) tractor hydraulic fluid recently. I was topping off the hydraulic system reservoir on a tractor this week from one of the newly opened buckets. I noticed some milky looking fluid going through the bucket pump clear tubing. Turns out that the bucket had 1-2 inches of water at the bottom of the bucket. The bucket was still factory sealed when I opened it. I suctioned the bad fluid out of the reservoir and took the bucket and a clear cup full of white fluid water emulsion to show the T S C store manager. I let the manager know that I store my fluid inside, so it was unlikely that water got into the bucket after I purchased it. She said that they store pallets of tractor hydraulic fluid outside. So that is a good explanation of how water leaked in. They gladly refunded my purchase price, but I let them know that I will not be buying any further hydraulic fluid from them until they start storing it inside. Just a word to the wise, make sure that your supplier does not store 5 gallon buckets of motor oil, tractor hydraulic fluid, gear oil, etc outside.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
