And yes I realize different people use different oils and they all work.. I just like to use what came in it! Not trying to resurrect any kind of Hytran debate!!

I agree with Jay. But for those that ain't sticken around, the TS worked just fine.
Come on Tim, for crumps sake, Wally world get's $15?? for 5 quarts of motor oil. Two oil changes will cost you $30 and change, how often you "need" to change your Hytran?
Dig into the other pocket, the one without the hole...

Think I paid almost $80 for 5 gallons back late last fall from CAse IH. Deere was about the same for HyGard. As many Cadets as you have, it's not gonna waste.

I think I need to pick a bucket from your side of the fence...
Let me show you how much we pay for that bucket here in my neck of the wood.

John I almost bought a 5 gal pail last time but the 2.5 gal jug is easier to handle.. I probably should get a pump for a 5 gal pail and do it that way!

Definitely the more you buy the cheaper it is per gallon.. The only one I change very often is the 1782.. it sees the most hours.. I do it every other year.. most of the others see oil changes about every 5 years

Yeah... We buy hytran by the 5 gals, usually have 3 to 4 buckets of hytran at any given moment. 20 bucks a gallon. Same as a 100 Dollar Bill for a bucket. Have a leak on the combine that's cost us 60.00 a day to run the last two days.

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

Both are half full, or half mt.

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.

Dang you have some nice collectables. Are you getting "modern" and collecting the plastic 5qt goose-necked jugs from the 80's?
