Smile New to the bird - Fluids
Hello,
Everyone, I recently purchased a 94 WB40, so far it has been great.
What I wanted to track down are the type of fluids that everyone recommends....

Detroit Diesel 8V92 Turbo
Oil type / brand:
Coolant type / brand:

Allison AT 755
Transmission Fluid:

Hydraulic Oil type / brand:

PowetTech 15KW
Oil type / brand:
Coolant type / brand:

I know there is a lot of opinions on these subjects, but I need to purchase and have on hand for whatever might come up while traveling, at the very least know what to ask for at a supply store.
Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks in advance
Woody

8V92 uses Delo 40W (straight weight). There is a specific one everybody recommends, but I don't know it off hand.

Not sure on the Allison, though I'm sure their website will tell you.

Powertech uses any good diesel oil. I've always used Rotella 15W40 in my older diesels. Any decent diesel coolant will work.

While you might need to carry some delo, I doubt you'll need much else.
