any suggestions on best motor oil and weight to use in the 430's ?
does anyone use a gas treatment ? does the gas today with the Ethanol work ok?

I use 30 wt detergent oil in my 430. I don't use gas treatment and haven't had any problem using regular gas with ethanol I use it for the loader mostly and it really doesn't have to work that hard.

I used 15/40 and also 20/50 (as the motor got more and more tired and the oil pressure suffered). Just about anything that you could purchase today is better than anything available in '59.
