I have a 250 DVX, so I am not sure if they are the same, however, the manual recommends 90 weight in the tranny and 10-40w in the engine, I went with Arctic cat brand just because mine is still under warrenty and there is not confusion if I use there brand, I am running synthetic also in the engine.

Hope that helps,, If you go to there web site I belive you can view the manual, If not perhaps the local shop/dealer.

Drain both the tank and the engine - they you put back 2000ML (2 qrts Amsoil) into the tank - you have to pour slowly and give the oil a few minutes to drain into the engine before cranking - then after a 3-5minutes crank it a few times to coat the interior of the engine - then start it up and re-check the oil level in the tank after letting it settle

Amsoil ! top notch stuff must be planning on keeping it a good long time ?

Arctic cats never die they just lose weight. . . now adding amsoil witch adds 30-50% more life span. . .

I run Amsoil in everything sept the dodge it leaks. . .
