Exclamation 94 Polaris 400L Liquid cooled 40yr. 2x4 2-Stroke Oils/Lubricants

I am have a heck of a time trying to finish up my 94 400L liquid cooled 2x4 two stroke. I do not have a manual and there isnt a store locally thats open 2day. My question(s) is: Whats the fluid types and capacities for all the maintenance I can do on it? I am trying to shop online a little but I can't even find the spec sheet for it. Anyone know where I might find one online? Thanks a million in advance.

ANY auto antifreeze ok for aluminum radiators(as most are now 50-50,60-40) TCW3 rated injector oil for oil tank or premix,Wally World oil just as good as any,(unless you want to go with the higher synthetic 2-stroke oil) 30wt or multi grade 10-30,10-40 for COUNTER BALANCER (dip stick under carb on engine,holds 75cc's), BEST trans oil is Polaris AGL or equivalent chain case lube,plus o-ring chain lube for chain. Must bleed air from cyl head (10 mm bolt at rear of head,loosen bolt until only coolant expels when filling radiator and NO air bubbles, OR engine can overheat. OPT

Your 4x4 takes Polaris demand drive plus hub oil if you want to do it right OR ATF in a pinch. OPT
