WHich one to use?

[GregH]

In my Kubota diesel tractor have used Schaeffers, Delvac 1, and Delvac 1300. Due to cost now trying to decide between Delvac 1300 and Delo. Anyone care to help decide between the 2.
Thanks in advance

Flip a coin, or, choose whichever is more readily available in your area. I use the Delvac 1300 myself.

I had to flip the coin four times before it landed on Delo .

I would use the 1300S if I owned a Kuboto

ISOSYN , is that marketing akin in some way to the Castrol thing to the less knowledgable consumer reading labels ?

Have used both with great results on my Honda EBK 2800S kerosene genset so whatever you can get your hands on easily and cheap, you wont go wrong.

Isosyn is a marketing term for group II/group II+. However, I'll promise you that DELO is one of the finest oils money can buy. Then again so is Delvac. Just flip the coin.

How many hours per year do you put on your tractor? If you work it hard and are willing to extend the oil drain interval, Schaeffer's will likely be the most economical in both oil and filter cost and reduced engine wear. If the useage is light, go Delo.
