I don't use cheap generic crap oil, always figured the parts it lubes cost way more than the money I'll save not buying the right oil

I checked online today, the price was $85 for 5 gallons.
Your combine leak reminds me of a tractor leak we once had, input shaft seal went out, dropped 2-3 gallons a day for the last 3-4 days we HAD to have that machine. Lets just say it got a clutch too.

I drove it to the dealer over an hour away (by tractor). I could start out in 8th gear(it only had 8)


It was an adventure for a 15 year old kid making that non-escorted drive in rush hour traffic.
