Was doing the 300 hour service and had my head up my ... er ... wasn't paying attention and dumped UDT into the crankcase. I caught myself before starting the tractor and am letting it drain out. What should I do? Will the engine get screwed up from the UDT?

Thanks in advance.

i would drain it, fill it with oil run it an hour or so and change it again. i would also change it 5 hours after that. not much else you can do.

Since you didn't start it, there won't be in much of it in the engine to where it won't come out just draining. Just let it drain out and put the right oil in. It won't cause any problem what so ever. After it is drained don't think anything else about it.

Drain UDT, put oil in. Change after you run it, change oil, run it and change oil. Simple dilution. Think of how nice and clean you engine will be :D !

I think that may be a little excessive. It was not run so it's only in the crankcase. And it's not like it's acid or anything. It's a lubricant itself. I would drain it and if you are really worried about it fill the crank case with diesel to normal oil levels and drain that. Might be a little cheaper than the oil.

Doesn't AMSOil make some sort of a cleaner you put in the crankcase and run it for 30 mins or so and drain that? That would my preferred course of action. Course finding an AMSOil dealer isn't always the simplest of tasks.

Is it ok to start making fun of you now, or do we need to give you a grace period?
