What is Messick's Smoking

[PaulL]

Great feedback, thanks for taking the time to post it. It’s due for a full flush so I might as well give her the best of the best, the cost difference is a small price to pay for my own peace of mind but generally I do agree about fluids…. Then I saw this…. FF to 5:30 mark (link below), and while I’m in the southwest and never use my M62 after it spent 5 days in the freezer, clearly (for me personally) there are enough differences to not risk fear of cavitation damage in a pump because the fluid I did use was missing an ingredient Kubota included. I’m HOURS away from a Kubota shop, any down time would pay for the difference in fluid price just in the trucking of the tractor to the shop alone. Especially given the Tractor Supply garbage (https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/p...0a-plus-utility-tractor-fluid-5-gal-vp2040114) that’s in her now, I had to use to finish a job (it was all the local ma n pa hardware store had so I bought three pails, I burst a hydraulic line so dumped lots).

Ah. Well that I can support. If you have junk fluid mostly filling it, then yeah, may as well replace. And I agree with OldHokie that SUDT is largely about cold weather performance. In my country Kubota don't appear to even sell it, we just get the old school UDT. Apparently NZers won't pay for anything better, and to be fair it doesn't get very cold here.

Considering what i paid for hair spray when I lived over on the Gold Coast, I can’t imagine having to buy Super UDT2 Bundy yes, that’s money well spent.

I have always ordered from Messicks and enjoy Neil's videos. But a new to me dealer opened a half hour from me. Canns Bilco in Albertis PA. I enjoy the ride to pickup parts and their pricing is a bit under Messicks. I consider myself lucky. Kind people to work with and always seem to have what I need.
