Gasoline-Oil

Recommended Gasoline

CAUTION
Do not use white gas or gasolines
containing methanol. Only Arctic Cat
approved gasoline additives should
be used.
6000
The recommended gasoline to use in this
snowmobile is minimum 91 octane gaso-
line with a maximum 10% ethanol content.
NOTE: For optimum performance,
use only 91 octane (minimum) gasoline.
CAUTION
If a situation arises wherein 91 octane
non ethanol or 91 octane with maximum
10% ethanol gasoline is not available, 87
octane gasoline can be substituted in
an emergency; however, the prolonged
usage of 87 octane gasoline can cause
severe engine damage.
Gasolines containing more than 10% eth-
anol are not acceptable gasoline for use
in this snowmobile. Do not use gasolines
containing methanol.
7000
The recommended gasoline to use in
these snowmobiles is 87 octane regular
unleaded. In many areas, oxygenates are
added to the gasoline. Oxygenated gaso-
lines containing up to 10% ethanol are
acceptable gasolines.
RR
When using ethanol blended gasoline, it is
not necessary to add a gasoline antifreeze
since ethanol will prevent the accumula-
tion of moisture in the fuel system.
Recommended Injection
Oil (6000)
The recommended oil to use in the oil-
injection system is Arctic Cat C-TEC2
Synthetic 2-Cycle Oil (p/n 6639-520 - 48
oz) This oil is specially formulated to be
used and meets all of the lubrication
requirements of the Arctic Cat C-TEC2
snowmobile engine.
CAUTION
Any oil used in place of the recom-
mended oil could cause serious
engine damage.
Recommended Engine Oil
(7000)
The recommended oil to use is Synthetic
C-TEC4 Oil (p/n 6639-529 - gal.).
After the engine break-in period, the engine
oil should be changed every 2500 miles
before prolonged storage and the oil filter
should be changed every 12,000 miles.
Filling Gas Tank
Since gasoline expands as its temperature
increases, the gas tank must be filled to
its rated capacity only. Expansion room
must be maintained in the tank particu-
larly if the tank is filled with cold gaso-
line and then moved to a warm area.
