If you would like to remember just one type of oil for both the hydraulics (includes rear end and transmission 6 gallons total) and the engine 15W40 will be your answer. It works better in the hydraulics in the very cold locations in the winter. Yes it is regular motor oil. One added plus it is cheaper than what was recommended when new, even cheaper when you buy it on sale. Richard

The TEA is a great little tractor. Do you have the serial number?

Richard's recomendation on oil is acceptible with out getting too confussing. If you find a 40wt. in the engine a little heavy then drop down to a 30weight oil.
