I just thought I would add that with "whatever brand" UTF there are usually 2 grades of fluid. The ones that are $20-30 /5 gal bucket are often a 20W fluid. The "premium" grade is a 10W, more suited for cold weather operation. If you use it when it is really cold I would strongly suggest the "premium" fluid. It will say in fine print " for cold weather"
Note: I am just sharing a lesson I learned when I put 12 gallons in the JD. It it's fine, since I don't use it much in the winter, but the few times I have it whines like hell and is really slow until it warms up. No issues at all above 40.
