It depends on where you are and how you will use it. The more modern more expensive oils have many additives to enable them to work with the wet clutch packs and brakes on modern tractors. These additives don't enable the oil to do anything better for an old dry clutch and brake tractor like your 202, than plain gear oil will do. What the these tractor hydraulic will do however is absorb a lot more moisture than older cheaper hydraulic oil or gear oil. The moisture gets in when humidity is high, and condenses on the interior surfaces of the transmission and hydraulic housing, and the oil absorbs it, and then the oil is described by the worried owner posting here as looking like a coffee milkshake. Posts about this come up here every other week. If you use your 202 long enough and hard enough frequently enough to get the oil hot enough for long enough the moisture will be driven off. Otherwise you will probably need to change it at least every year. If you use conventional oil such as what the tractor was shipped with originally you need to simply loosen the drain plugs and drain the water off the bottom once a year. In this case spending more is probably not good for your tractor.

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
