There is only 1 place, other than the gas/oil mix res, to put oil right? I get conflicting info on what oil to use in the tranny. Some say Gear type oils like Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90, and others, including the manual say 10w-40, like in the tranny of other 4stroke tranny's that have wet clutches(make me think there's more than 1 place to put oil because they are so different). I don't have the Owners Manual, how often does it say to change the oil? Is there a PDF of the Owners manual somewhere(PM mw about that one, not sure if it's allowed).

Thanks,

In the transmission you can use engine oil for four strokes or the gear oil, it's a matter of personnel preference. The only other oil used in a two stroke engine is the two cycle oil which you either pre -mix with gas or use the auto injection that came from the factory. I know it is kind of confusing. I was trying to change the engine oil in my first two stroke two.

 

While the manual may say to use engine oil, I have found that the 2 stroke gear oils work better. I don't have much Blaster experience, but I saw a big difference in shifting after I switched to 80w Bel-Ray Gearsaver in a Banshee. I didn't get much difference when I switched my old Quadracer over to the same stuff, but that was always a better shifting tranny to begin with. Bottom line, I believe the gear oils are better suited for that application. They seem to help ease shifting to some extent, and I wouldn't run anything else in a 2 stroke tranny.
