If you really want the Case-IH oil, find a dealer near you and call to see if they stock 30W Low Ash oil and are willing to ship it to you. Make sure they know what you are talking about. IH also made a No1 diesel engine oil, you don't want that. Cant remember if they made any others nor do I know if Case-IH has any new flavors. Personally I think the other oils suggested here will work fine. My 2072 has never had anything but IH Low-ash. The 129, 128, 382 and John Deere 110 (with an 8hp Kohler) have all been running for years with an Exxon diesel oil---yes I know you aren't supposed to put that in a gas engine but when the 15 or so engines we have using it blow up we'll consider changing. Personally, I think all you need is a quality oil and check it every time you mow the grass or fill the fuel tank, whichever comes first. And unless you can cut your yard in 30 minutes, change it about mid season. And if you run out 2-3 tanks of fuel a week, don't change oil more often, upgrade to a SUPER!
