Question: TO35 Transmission, hyd, differential oil
two years ago I changed the trans, hyd, diff oil in my TO35, refilled the sump with GL-1 90 weight mineral oil. 8 gals x $16
of course in the winter the pump is slow, last year it was a nuance, but not end of the world waiting for it to pump up then it worked fine.
I read of others on the site filling their sumps with 15w40 diesel oil
the local auto parts store has 15w40 on sale this week for $12 per gal.
Question: would it hurt anything or help anything, if I drained out two gals of the GL-1 oil and replaced it with two gals of 15w40 diesel oil.
would the two oils mix, would it allow the pump to work faster in colder weather after the oils mixed.>
any thoughts are appreciated?
