Hyd Trans Fluid 134C shelf life.

[Leemac]

I'm ready to perform 600 hour service on my NH1320 Hyd and I still have almost 5 gallons of 134c Fluid from my 300 hour service which was almost 3 years ago. Would I be safe in using what I have onhand now. It has been in an unheated area in my barn.Appreciate your comments. Thanks /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I've generaly heard 3-5 years on most products i'd say i'd be ok. They indicate main concern is changing standards and certian additives may expire more than that..
