Oliver hydrollic fluid substitutes

Friend owns a 1600 series Oliver tractor. It sat for a while and needed head work that he done and it purrs like a kitten. Problem is in hydrolic outlets. One outlet drips and the other is good. Its not deal breaker but it got him wondering when he saw fluid prices. Is there a substitute to hydrolic oil? He is thinking back in the day when he drove his dads international they used thinner non detergent motor oil in the system. Just got us thinking and wondering.
 
No substitute for real hydraulic/transmission oil. Mobil Delvac Tractor hydraulic oil
I think this works, Check with the labeling
 
Just replace the leaking hydraulic coupler, remember that Olivers must have couplers that connect and disconnect under pressure. The ones with the release levers works great on my Olivers. Generic hydraucic oil from your favorite farm supply store will work just fine.
 
You don't have to use the higher priced HyTran type in it Mike. The less expensive universal hydraulic is fine. I generally get it at Farm and Home in Alma. About as cheap a place to get it as I know of. I put a brand new set of Pioneer couplers on my 1600 and they leaked right out of the box. I put pipe plugs in male tips and plugged them in. Not even a drip since.
