Does anyone use NAPA Hydraulic oil instead of NH134

[kartingdad]

Time for service on my TC40DA . Will pick up the HST filter (SBA340501030 ? ) from my dealer and I have a WIX 51536 Hydro filter, but my local NAPA dealer is tying to sell me there brand of Hyd oil for $50 a 5 gallon bucket instead of $80 a bucket at my NH dealer. The NAPA oil says it meets the 134 requirements. $60 savings is enough to buy the filters. What do TBN people think of this choice or do I bight the bullet and and buy the NH oil.
Next question: Does anyone have a picture of the location of the two drain plugs? I remember the last time I changed it I had to look all over to find them and the diagram in the owners manual was not a lot of help, Thanks for the help and opinions Don

if the napa oil you are looking at is the utf fluid, and it states it meets m2c134d spec. its correct oil.

ps. you can find it for 35$ PER 5G BY LOOKING AROUND...

Any Suggestions were? Does "Meets or exceeds " really mean equal to?

 

[Soundguy]

yes and no.

you can find some 20$ per 5g utf fluides that meet the m2c134 lube specs, but not the viscosity specs. thus in cold weather they will be thicker.

hop up to the 35-50$ range and if it says it is m2c134d compatible. i'd have no fear using it.

( walmart, tsc, carquest..e tc. shop around )
