No real point to this thread other than to let people know what I've been using in my old Yanmar, a product I don't think you have in the US. It's a UTO that can be used as an engine oil as well as gearbox and hydrailics. It generated a few interesting comments in the Yanmar forum so thought I would share here.
There are a couple of brands available in the UK, both reputable blenders, so I would hope the product meets the claims. The question is, is it a compromise too far? Jack of all trades, master of none? Or a good way to rationalise the number of cans in the garage?
I've had no ill effects so far, but I don't put that many hours on the tractor in a year, so maybe I've not used it enough to see any negative effects.
The product I use is Fuchs Agrifarm STO Plus AGRIFARM STO PLUS 10W-30 - Fuchs.
Another brand I would use here MORRIS LUBRICANTS :: SUPER FARM UNIVERSAL 10W-30 - AGRICULTURAL OIL
