I have read in different forums, questions regarding engine oils in diferent modles of tractors. My father, until his death, used 30W Valvoline engine oil in our Fordson Super Major for as long as I could rember. When I took over the farm, I kept using this oil as well. I used to drive tractor trailer for a number of years prior, and owning my own trucks, I used Shell Rotella 15W40. When I quit driving truck, I worked part time as a parts persson at my local Case IH dealership. They sold, and still sell Case IH 15W40 oil. Not being familliar with their oil, I asked the difference between Valvoline, Shel Rotella, and Case IH oils. I was shown a chart, compairing these oils, and the reasurch results where mind blowing. Case IH oils had way more additives surpassing most all other oils in the market, including Valvoline, and Shell Rotella. After seeing thiese results, I switched all my oils to Case IH oil. Engine oil,and Trans/Hydraulic oil. I use it in my Fordson Dexta, David Brown 880, 655 Massy Furguson swather, as well as my Super Major. I also will be using this Case IH oils for my Cockshutt 1650 tractor. With Case IH oil, you can run your equipment for at least 100 hours more inbetween oil changes. (300 hours instead of 200 hours) They sell their oils in bulk. 15W40 and trans/hydraulic. Go to your local dealer to see their data, on oils. I know you will be impressed with it. I sure was. Hopfully this helps.

Today's Featured Article - On the Road with Dave Gohl: Auction Musings - by Dave Gohl. I was thinking the other day about all the auctions I've been to in the last few years. There've been many. Some have been very good, some have been well, disappointing to say the least. But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
