Had the Hyd. tank off the truck so I could clean it out. Put it up on the lift table and ran 300 deg oil through it for a while. pretty sure that got all the water out of the tank. This is what the Hydraulic oil looked like when I took it out of the tank and the start of the boil down process. there was lots of moisture trapped in that oil.

I shut the flame off to check it out. Still kinda cloudy so fire it back up. Oil was at 220 in this one.

I know a lot about a lot of things BUT I still have a lot to learn.
Life is what you make of it. So, why not make a working machine to make it easier.
