Oil & Fluids questions
I have a 86 Sportsman500L . I have questions about substitute fluids. Is there a substitute for the Polaris synthetic chain lube or the engine oil-listed as Premium 4 all season synthetic? I am not really near any Polaris dealers. I understand the 80-90 oil used in the front gea rcase. is generic. The type F fluid for the hubs is kind of generic also. I assume that the type F fluid is what the older Ford vehicles used long ago, but they switched to type A (dexron) later.

Guess you hit the wrong key,96 Sportsman 500. You can use any good synthetic oil from 0w40,5w40,5w50.Doesn't matter if it has friction modifiers or not. Any gear case oil suitable for chain driven gear cases such as Amsoil,Lucas(at most auto supply stores),Bel-Ray,etc. 80/90 GL4 or 5 in the front diff. Hub fluid Type F if you don't have any other options.
