S-C Manitoba, Canada
We had a 6400 on a water pump filling hog ponds. Over night the ice dam broke and water raised 8ft submerging it to the bottom of the cab. We have changed oil 5 times in the last year and can't get the milkiness out. I think clutches have taken some damage but not sure what else to do to get oil clean?
Was thinking of installing ball valves in drain plugs and take a few cups out every morning?
Will water and hydraulic oil separate if sitting for a while?
