Gasoline-Oil

Recommended Gasoline
CAUTION
Do not use white gas or gasolines
containing methanol. Only Arctic Cat
approved gasoline additives should
be used.
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.
Recommended Injection
Oil
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.
RR
CAUTION
Any oil used in place of the recom-
mended oil could cause serious
engine damage.
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.
Also, if the snowmobile is to remain on a
trailer after filling the gas tank, the bed of
the trailer must be maintained level to
prevent gasoline from draining out
through the gas tank vent hose.
! WARNING
Always fill the gas tank in a well-venti-
lated area. Never add gasoline to the
snowmobile gas tank near any open
flames or with the engine running. DO
NOT SMOKE while filling the gas tank.
Do not sit on the snowmobile without
first installing the gas tank cap.
