Title: Engine oil for 1974 diesel MF135?

Engine oil for 1974 diesel MF135? I have been told that 15W/30 is suitable?

Thanks,

don't know about MF really so you'd better wait for someone who does, but I would have said 15W/30 universal tractor oil (it's what I put in my 1968 david brown 990, engine and gearbox/hydraulics). I'm not sure what the difference is between UTO 15W/30 and just plain 15W/30 but I went with what was recommended for the tractor.
