I have about 18 gallons of clean, new hydraulic oil. Will it burn in my Cummins like my used motor oil does? I was thinking about running a little in my 82 International dump truck with the Cummins.....?? Thanks....

Why would you burn new hydraulic oil when you have a dump truck. Someday you might need it for the hoist.
