I think a better way to phrase my question is what does 'meet the spec' really mean? Does it meet the spec in some ways and not others?

"meet the spec" means it meets the spec.

Who is it bottled by? The prices have been very tempting, as our 1523 will need a service by fall.

Also, we need to top the system up. Just to confirm, if the Walmart UTF meets the MF Permatran spec ( it meets NH 134, so it should be ok.) then we would have no issues using it??

Could you get me the name or item number off it, so I can look up the msds. I cannot find the specs on the walmart site.

At $77 for 5 gallons, the MF oil is pricey.

I'm pretty sure both the TSC oil and the supertech oil is made by warren.

I can't say if it has the permatran spec or not.. I don't have a jug with me.

Thanks Chris. Chances are if it meets NH134 spec, then it should meet Permatran spec. I will check on my next trip to walmart.

Do check... I know it does not spec that it meets some of the newer kubota oils.

Whoa... I thought JD stuff was pricey! Bought 2-5gal buckets from my local JD guy a couple weeks ago - $110.. Lo-Vis J20D.. I think, forget if the Lo-Vis is D or C...

That must meet/exceed NH and permatran specs... whatever the governing body that determines that..

O' Good thinking, We all know that raw patrolium into earth than it is the matter of concern that how we can save it? coz it is sure that if we don't care it will remove oneday so save it and find out other alternative to resolve this problem. so you are well wisher that wanna to save it.

Super Tech UTF TDH - meets or exceeds MF- M1110, M1127A, M1127B, M1129A, M1141.

MF Permatran 821XL - meets or exceeds M1141, M1129, M1129A.

So I take it this means that I am ok to run the SuperTech oil with no worries of warranty hassles??
