Wayne0 505 #1 Posted May 22, 2023 Some where I read about using 40wt oil in a hydro to address a "slipping" issue. I can't find it. Can anyone shed some light on this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lynnmor 7,352 #3 Posted May 22, 2023 10W-30 in a 520-H. I use Castrol semi-synthetic high mileage oil with good results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 49,138 #4 Posted May 22, 2023 Some where I may have heard this too but don't practice it. 10/30 syn if not atf gets my nod with no issues. If you are having slipping issues might be an underlying problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
