Too good of a deal to pass up. I forgot to ask the guy what oil he used. I've heard the power valves on this model aren't the best, so I was wondering what oil you think would be best for this sled.
Thanks for your replies.
Amsoil regular or racing 2000. By far the best oil for any sled.
Castrol Syntec is also good at keeping the valves clean but it has a stong smell that smells really good if you like it but could be sick to someone else. Its also a little cheaper.

Hey all,
First post in a long time. I just bought an older sled after many years without one. This is a lot newer than the sleds that I had years ago so I am hoping that someone can give me some advice.
I just picked this up last night and haven't had a chance to really look at it much yet...
