Arctic Cat branded oil; does anyone know the viscosity
« on: May 10, 2018, 08:59:05 PM »
Does anyone know the viscosity of Arctic Cat branded synthetic oil? Or how to test for a rough guess? I want to switch brands.
I bough a new ATV a couple years ago. The dealer included an oil change kit and 4 extra liners of oil. I bought another change kit after that but have decided the price is too steep for yet another spin-on filter and 2 litres of oil.
No where on the packaging is any listing of viscosity. The owners manual specifies AC brand oil only (there's a surprise).
Any AC dealers or mechanics among us?

Sweet, thank you. The package the local dealer sells/sold was only two litres.

~ you'd think I would have thought to go straight to the source myself.
Guess I did. WG knows all.... Thanks again.
