So this seems to end up as a joke every time it is brought up.
Hytran has proprietary to Case/IH additives in it to promote moisture absorption. If you change your hydro oil every couple of years, this is not an issue. If you expect your cheap oil to last 20 years, well, good luck!
We are talking the equivalent of chicken $hit money difference in cost between the two. Same to the guys that refuse to use the OEM hydro filter, and get one than spins on and doesn't leak... I know which product I will be using.
