[QUOTE="Bullring, post: 7645948, member: 127"] I need a new barrel of oil for my tier 2 Massey 6470, usually use Morris oil but have used Castrol last time so not up on latest specs, and in the past have had liquimatic JDF. After speaking to a local contractor he says I should be using super versitrac 10w-40. After looking on the Morris website liquimatic jdf is MF 1143 approved and also MF1135 and MF1145 and API GL4 and the Versitrac is MF1145 aproved an MF1139 and MF1144 and API CG4. Here lies the question, Morris oil recommends the versitrac for 6470 upto 2006 so tier 2 and liquimatic JDF for sisu tier 3 from 2007 onwards, why when the backend is the same? My operators manual recommends MF1143. I would prefer to use liquimatic JDF as it also meets jd20c specs so I can use it in my handler to save buying multiple oils an simplify things but is it really suitable for the massey. Massey have changed their spec of oils in their own drums which is made by Morris for a vastly inflated price. I use to use it since I’ve bought it new and I use to use 10-30 which they sold was 1143 approved but they now only sell 1145 approved oils. [/QUOTE]
