need to change oil soon. is there any specific oil besides oil from dealership i can use
something is better than the stock crap. im also going to buy a k&n oil filter. so any suggestions

 

I think any 0-40 or 2-50 syntheatic oil will do. The polaris oil is good stuff any other route you go wont be that much cheaper. I use polaris but some guys around here use ams oil or mobil 1. And wal-mart has filters for polaris in stock but they are mabe a dollar cheaper something like that.

 

i could jus buy a k&n oil filter and use the polaris oil then huh?

 

I recently switched to Napa Gold (Wix) filter, and Mobil 1 0W-40 oil, and for the trans. and front and rear diffs. I use Polaris only

 

Thats what I would recomend. But if you live a long ways from a dealer you might be better off going the other route. Im sure someone who used other oil will chime in soon and say what they use. But its polaris oil for me.

 

well im using k&N oil filter for sure. maybe ill get some polaris oil and change it idk yet or maybe ill jus go to autozone and get some mobil one. what bout front and rear diff. you said you use polaris only. or what. where do you drain and fill that at

 

I only use polaris, some say 80-90 is ok, but I think it's cheap insurance to just use the proper stuff

What bike do you have?

 

i habe a 1998 polaris sportsman 500 4x4 with EBS

 

I for the most part use only Polaris stuff jsut becuase i KNOW thats what its made for and such. Just my 2 cents though

 

O well, that changes the the oils you need, as far as your bike goes, I'm not to sure, so I'll let the pros take over
