Works good in my junk with absolutely no issues for years...Maybe I'm gettin by with it cuz I'm slow and only go low teens 60' and 4.70's to the 1/8th at 3250# on 275 drag radials !! Dam Gary what are you running for a power plant? You have to be making around 1500HP to run those numbers.

Changed to JD hydraulic fluid...no flare. The JD fluid stinks when it gets hot. I switched again to type F....no flare and no stink!! Last edited by Dave_S; 08/22/15 12:31 PM.
