After putting gas in the hydraulic tank, I flushed it 2 times. Ran it between flushes. This morning I put it to work, but ran the engine slow. All seems to work well. Thank God no major damage. The hydraulic oil normally get around 140 degrees. I took the fill cap off and could feel the heat coming out not to mention the smell of gas.
Got to thinking, isn't gas refined using a process called fractional distillation. So what temp does gas bubble out of the crude oil? I'm thinking if I vent the tank the heat generated by the pump may help get rid of the little remaining gas.
I plan to flush it out a few more times, but each flush I leave about 25% of the contaminated oil in the hydraulic cylinders, pump, torque motor and hoses.
I'm impressed with the strength of the, terramite T5D.
