i need to know what kind of oil and how much oil to add to my 95 scrammy 400 since i got it the oil has not been changed ( 1 month or less) but we are goin riding tomorrow and my dealer is closed so i cant call and ask them so its polaris guys to the rescue i hope lol

 

I'm not sure what oil you are talking about, but if you are talking about the oil in the front resivor then you need to check and see what color of oil is in it, if it is blue....add the blue polaris 2 stroke oil, and if it is gold/brown....add the 2 stroke polaris synthetic oil. If you are talking in counterbalance you add some bel-ray oil....I'm not sure on the weight...but someone will know.

 

im talkin about the dipstick on the right side of the quad is this the counterbalance?
these things do have crankcase oil right

 

thats your transmisson dipstick,it takes 11oz of synthetic gearcase lub.your counter balance is the big slotted plug on the engine case.this info is for the 02 scrammy should be the same though..

 

what do you mean big slotted plug and you say the dipstick is the tranny

 

i know on my machine the dipstick is for the tranny,and the counter balance dipstick screws into the case on the right side,just look for the thing sticking out of the case that has a big slot for a regular screwdriver its kinda near the pull cord..

 

ok new question i checked that dipstick and it has black stuff on it i smelled it and it doesnt smell burnt it looks like really fine metal shavings but when i rub it between my fingers it doesnt feel grainy at all so what does that mean do i need to change the tranny oil or what

 

the tranny dipstick should have a magnetic end,its normal to see metal shavings stuck to it..as long as its full id go for your ride tomorrow.

 

If your talking about an oil change like on a car, you dont do that on a 2-stroke, no crankcase oil and no filter. As for all the other fluids I'd see if you can find an owners/maintenance manual for your bike, that will tell you all the check pionts fluid types and capacities.
