Hi Everyone,
I'm new to the group and just purchased a 47 8n.
I've read here to use only hydraulic/transmission oil that specifically says it's made to ford specs. I went to the nearest Case/New Holland dealer and asked for just that. They ended up giving me Case IH oil, saying it was the same, and then I later saw the charge at $80 for a 5 gallon pail. Is it worth paying double, should I get the generic stuff for half as much, or should I keep looking for ford specific stuff.
Thanks.
