Not looking for the best boutique oil at all. 5w50 is the rated oil for polaris. I asked about castrol edge in my original post on the powersports forum aswell. I did not bring up the amalie oil here because I am not asking about the "boutique atv oils" here just if anybody has done testing on...

Not a lot of replies in power sports forum and this more applies to passenger oil anyway. I am thinking of changing my polaris ranger over to a non UTV/ATV specific full synthetic oil either Castrol Edge 5w50 or Amsoil signature 5w50. The big issue with polaris is fuel dilution and oil shearing...

2021 xp1000 I have been using Amsoil polaris 5w50 oils but use the last quart in the case now I need to make decisions. 1. Do I stay with Amsoil or change to Amalie UTV which is $50 a case cheaper and higher rated. 2. Do I stick with a utv/atv oil which is made for wet transmissions which the...

Are using 5w30 or 5w50? The polaris 5w50 or signature 5w50

Wow I grease my trucks frontends like every 20,000 miles ish all have over 200k miles all original parts valvoline durablend grease. 2 are plow trucks so hard on balljoints.

I was given 5 cases or Valvoline premium blue geo m-85 NG engine oil 15w40. It came from a cummins tech and is used in gensets it is cf-4 rated does anybody know how this corresponds to the older Cj4 diesel oil I was told it is pretty much a low ash diesel oil used in CNG and LPG engines for...

going to put a shift kit in my allison 1000 so need some fluid. Amazon has Havoline Dexron VI for $45 a case of 12 acdelco is $22 a gallon. I like Delo oils by chevron not sure how good Havoline is as a product line. So is it all equal??

I buy filters in bulk usually wix from fleetfilter but their prices are getting high when you add in s&h. So I looked at rock auto they have acdelco duraguards but I noticed the numbers have a F like ph61F or ph63F anybody know what the F is for? Any place besides fleet filter with good...

I know of 4 people that had or have trailblazers that have sludge in the engine, 2 were to the point the engines had to be replaced. All were earlier year 02-04. The mechanic that does all my heavy or nasty work is a 20yr Chevrolet dealer mechanic. I talked to him before buying my trailblazer...

that tsb does not say anything and there is not a replaceable pcv on the engine. All I was is if there is a better oil to buy for the extra 2 quarts over the standard oil I am already using.

its not just the 06's its all the 4.2l inline six engines.

the 4.2 inline 6 does NOT have a replaceable pcv valve hence the sludge problems!!!
