ziegman Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Amsoil makes 2 different oils for atv use, dominator and interceptor, both are recommended at 50:1 ratio. Dont be afraid of that 50:1 ratio, just checked my shee last weekend, the tolerances are the same as when I rebuilt it january 07. It has had two summers here in fort worth area, along with being ridden in the snow, rattlesnake weekend 07 at little sahara ( snow on the dunes that friday) along with countless other trips. Checked out at 180psi per side, exactly as it was when the top end was fresh. I have used it for years and will never change unless they go out of business. However if what you have is not dominator or interceptor then be careful, the other 2 stroke oils they make are for outboards and small power equipt. Quote
fastrthnu Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 alot of high quality oils can be run leaner 40:1-60:1 without any problem. If you run 50:1 I doubt youll need to change you jetting,. though if the bike has gone through a decent drop in temperature since last run, you might need a bigger jet due to the colder weather.

bahlduzzi Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Posted January 16, 2009 Ok, I ran it when it was around 30 before and it ran good. I guess I will run it at 50:1, it is the interceptor oil, I will make sure to check the plugs too:) Quote
