        Hi,

        Looking for recommendation for Hydraulic oil for my Foton 704.

        Also looking for recommendation for power steering, transmission and front and rear gear oil.

        Anyone know if I have an injector pump on this thing, if so, where the heck it is located.

        Thanks in advance.

        Joe

          Hydraulic oil – ISO AW 46 or multi-grade ISO AW 32/46/68.

          If it’s a diesel engine it has a fuel injection pump/governor assembly. These are normally driven from the accessory gear train on the front of the engine. How about a picture of the left side of the engine?

          Someone else can help you with the other oils.

            I have a Foton 404. The Fotons work best in all temps with aw32 hydraulic fluid. My steering is two hydraulic cylinders and I use the aw32 in the steering resevoir and the injector pump. I use 80/90 weight gear oil.

              Thanks guys.

              I’ll have to get a picture of the Diesel engin next time I’m at the farm in a few weeks.

              Should we stay away from the “Universal Hydraulic oil” such as Universal oil

              What about this 303 Oil 303 oil

              Thanks again

                I think 303 is a tranny oil with older john deere and universal can be used in common sump systems use aw 32 in lifting and steering systems .
