[QUOTE="Seamonkeyboy, post: 127845, member: 23097"] Ok so I may have solved the 10W30 debacle of the past ten years. CAT makes a hydraulic fluid that is called Hydro Advanced 10. It is an emulsifier, it has .09ppm of Zinc, anti foaming etc. There website specifically talks about the taboos of shedding water AW hydraulic fluids. Shedding (De emulsifying is bad). Water can end up in the bottom of your pumps. Problem is its 179 bucks for a 5 gallon bucket. I need two of these. However, Shell Rotella T4 10W30 heavy duty diesel oil is high in zinc (1.225ppm) and phosphorus and anti foaming as in all engine oils. The Shell is 19 bucks a gallon. Any expertise out there would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
