I have a 1957 Ford 800, I put Tractor Supply Store's Xtreme Hydraulic and Trans Fluid in it. It turns milky looking quickly in cold and hot weather. This is copied from the web site:
"Xtremeョ Tractor Hydraulic & Transmission Fluid is designed as a replacement fluid and universal lubricant for farm and industrial tractors and construction equipment. It's a blend of base stocks with an EP (extreme pressure) and AW (anti-wear) additive package and highly active rust, corrosion, and oxidation inhibitors - all in a balanced performance package to insure lubricity, wear protection, and compatibility with seals, o-rings and packing materials. Xtremeョ Tractor Hydraulic & Transmission Fluid is an economical multiple service oil for use in the majority of hydraulic, wet brake, and transmission requirements of most equipment requiring universal tractor fluid"
Two or three time, my 3 pt lift quit lifting for no apparent reason, than after I let it sit awhile, it works normally. Could it be related to the fluid I am using? Is there a reason it is much cheaper than other fluid? I am new to tractors, and am learning as I go. Thanks.
