Re: FUCHS oil...

nothing wrong with Fuchs oils. We use it at work for everything generators and trucks.
I use it myself never had any trouble with it. even use it in my qaud and plan on use it in my racecar.
I know some large earth moving and minning virms that only use Fuchs.

so go hard with it, good oils.
