I just completed installing the live hydraulic pump on my B. I put in regular red hydraulic fluid. Seems like I get a lot of foam in the fluid. Am I using the wrong type of hydraulic oil or am I suppose to use nondetergent oil? Thank for your help Roger

Hygaurd or a quality wet clutch compatable trans/hydraulic fluid.

"Red"?? You don't mean Dexron or Type F Automatic Transmission Fluid do you? That stuff hasn't been suggested for use in even power steering units for some decades, it foams and howls too much. It is also very high in detergents.

Nothing wrong with a good high detergent engine oil as long as you change it from time to time.

Also the "foam" may be from air in the system and my work out over time.

I think the book calls for 30wt non detergent oil in the hydraulics on these old 2 cylinders. We always used the same as in the engine on our G and never seemed to have any problems.
