2-Cycle Oil Question

hazelnut · 01-22-2009, 11:50 PM

Hello and please forgive me if this topic has been discussed before. I did a quick search before posting but came up empty.

I have owned snowmobiles before but never brand new. Well now I have a brand new Snowmobile. Just bought it last weekend. I am looking for suggestions on 2-stoke oil. The manual says I should use Polaris VES II Synthetic 2-Cycle Oil. Does anyone have any comments on this. Could any experienced owners tell me if it is completely necessary that I use Polaris Oil. If so where is the best place/price to buy it at. If not what suggestions/brands/locations should I consider.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. I haven't had to fill the oil tank yet as it is only a quarter down but I want to top it off next time I refill the gas tank.

Again Thanks for any input.
