2001arctic cat 400 oil
Changed oil on my used 4x4 Arctic Cat 400 manual and the oil was a light gray. Last year changed it with filter and castrol 10-40. It seems ok on antifreeze and runs fine so what gives? A guy told me it might be from not getting it hot enough as i just use it for short periods.

If your machine has a wet clutch some car oils especially a lot of synthetics have friction modifiers than can cause clutch slipping.Make sure any oil you use has a Jaso Ma or Md rating.Most specific motor cycle/atv oils have this rating. No friction modifiers than can hurt clutch plates. If any oil says "energy or resource" conserving, it has friction modifiers and stay away from it.

No water crossing but another guy says maybe wrong oil and a shop guy says it is from too much running for short times which i do a lot of, no trail riding. The fan for the radiator is on all the time, looks like the guy ownd it before me put a toggle switch on to shut it off but cut the wires so it aint hooked up. Thanx for tge suggestion this the first one i have owned.
