How much do I need?

Tell us what you are treating and how much oil it holds.

1 What are you treating?
How this is figured. First application is 1½ oz (5%) per quart of oil in the system. Every treatment after that is 1 oz (3%) per quart. Limited-slip differentials and hydrostatic drives are treated at 1% and no more — they work on friction, and the standard rate is too much. A machine’s hydraulic system is not its hydrostatic drive: the pump, cylinders and loader arms take the standard rate, and that rate earns its keep in a loader working in extreme cold. If you are not sure which one you have, call us before you pour. Fortifiers are not recommended for automatic transmissions that require friction.

Round up to the nearest half ounce in the field. A one-ounce measuring pump meters an exact ounce per quart if you track results with oil analysis. Not sure what your machine holds? Call us at 800‑735‑6438, 8:00–5:00 Mountain, Monday through Friday.
