First of all, thanks to all you guys who attempted to help me out (see message/replies below). Second, now that I have drained the newly added 80 wt oil out of hydraulic system area and refilled with a light non-detergent oil, could I put in an additive of some sort to help "absorb" or "thin" any residue left from the 80 wt.? or should I just leave it alone?

If I'm the one that caused you all the extra work, want to apologize, should have made the explanation more clear. I use 80/90 wt in the tran., diff.and trans clutch, 20w non det. in the Hydraulics

Mac, it's my fault for not knowing what I drained. Everything's fine. The real problem is that I'm too cheap to buy a manual. Thanks for the reply.

The residual 80 wt oil (even a cup or two) shouldn't hurt anything. In fact, one of the old-timer tricks for getting a little more life out of a failing pump is to use a heavier oil. One guy I talked to recommended mixing 80 wt with the regular hydraulic oil 1:1 with only one restriction. If the tractor was left out in the cold during the winter, let it warm up completely before using the hydraulics.
