I just bought a 2004 Polaris Scrambler 500. I need to change the oil and I've seen two different ways. Both show draining the oil tank only and say you dont need to drain the engine. The other way has you draining the tank and the engine with it says hold about 1/2 a quart. Also Polaris wants $8.99 a quart for their PS40 full Synthetic. Is there anything that is cheaper thats just as good?

 

drain the oil tank and the engine,plus fresh oil filter(try fram if you wanna save a couple bucks)
mobil 1 is a bit cheaper and you can get in whatever flavor you want.

 

yeah like forgetful says the mobile1 is available in our 0-40 weight at autozone at a better price,,,,,,,,,,
