Bad mix?

[DON TX]

I mixed 134 with 30w in the engine and at the same time overfilled it with the 134. I assume the 134 is on top. If I can remove most of the 134, will it harm the engine? I need to relabel the containers I reuse better.

Don........thats dumb; ya quiblin' about mixing 60wt 134 hydro-tranny oil with yer 30wt engine. BYTE the BULLET and change yer engine oil. 6-qts of detergent 30wt ($18, cheap) for winter time in Texas. In 1939, Ford recommended adding 1-qt of kerosene to 30wt engine oil for eazier winter time starting, not 60wt, silly. Modern oils are so much better. Change yer oil filter too, its NOT EXPENSIVE. ($10, cheap) .......Dell, the incredulous

Ford recommended adding 1-qt of kerosene to 30wt engine oil for easier winter starting. Ford may have a better Idea but that is not one of them. Kerosene will wash your connecting rod bearings out then you will have to do a rebuild like what happened to me. Talked to an old time mechanic after the fact and he said back when the dual fuel set up was common and most farmers burnt kerosene because of the cost. You had to keep your oil changed frequently because you didn’t get complete combustion of the kerosene like you did with gas and what didn’t burn ended up in the crank case and ruined the bearings.

Smile when ya say that pardner. I thought it would make a good breakin oil. When I drain it can I use it in the tranny?(%^)
