For the transmission, it takes 90wt. gear lube. If you cannot find straight 90wt., then, in cooler climates, you can use 75w-90; in hot climates, or in a truly hard working tractor, you could use 85w-140 (some companies call it 80W-140). For hobby use, I like 75w-90.

I always tell guys to use the same oil they use in their car or pickup. No use keeping more than one kind of oil around.

I agree with that concept up to a point. Todays car and truck engines are built to much tighter tolerances than a 50 year old tractor, so the 5w-30 works good in cars and trucks, but I don't think 5 weight is what I want in my tractors. Some of the newer Ford vehicles actuall use 0w-20, or something like that, when you pour it out of the bottle it looks just water. I will not put that oil in any tractor. 10w-40 would be OK, 15w-40 would also be OK.

Sae 15-40 is what I believe in. If it is fresh and new inside I use AmsOil synthetic.
