Recommended Gasoline
The recommended gasoline to use in this
ATV is 87 minimum octane regular
unleaded. In many areas, oxygenates
(either ethanol or MTBE) are added to
the gasoline. Oxygenated gasolines con-
taining up to 10% ethanol, 5% methane,
or MTBE are acceptable gasolines.
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.
CAUTION
Do not use white gas. Only Arctic Cat
approved gasoline additives should
be used.
