MATT: Thanks for letting us know about the winter conditions this oil was run it. Despite the cold
starts and short runs, the engine looks like it's doing great. The universal averages column shows
typical wear from this type of engine after 275 hours on the oil. This oil was run just 133 hours, so your
next oil fill can easily be run longer than this. We'd suggest going on up to 200-250 hours for that fill.
The oil was in good shape physically, containing no moisture, fuel, or coolant. The air and oil filters are
working well too. Looks like a nice engine.

Guess I am still trying to find an application that this oil does not excel in (at least on my farm)
 
I should also note that the recommended oil change interval for this tractor is 100 hours, so I already had run it 33% over the standard interval, and they are basically telling me to double or go 2.5 times the manual's recommendation.
 
I am constantly impressed with the 9000 oil in all of my stuff. It has run better in my Kubotas than the other oils I had tried. Thanks Schaeffer for making a great oil at a good price.
