Wow looks like I have everyone fired up!! Sorry. Money is not an issue, if Sea and Snow was the same price or more than Ski doo oil I would still buy it, if I thought it was better. I just want to put whatever is best in my motor so when I am hammer down or am climing a hill I will feel comfortable that my engine is happy.. Still leaning towards Sea and Snow. Have a little over a month to make my mind up!<font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font> I am also a believer that if its goona blow up its gonna blow up wether its ski doo oil or Sea and Snow

brown50rn You are right on, I ran Amsoil in all my sleds then out of no were my 700 X Fire motor let go with 4000 miles. When you ride hard you never know on a 2 stroke. 3 things you don't talk about Politics, Religion, & 2 stroke oil.

Oh yeah longtrack, if it isn't expensive enough for a sled, it can't possibly pass the test for an e-tek....... <font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font><font color="ff0000">&#149;</font>?

Its really funny! The less people know about oil the more they are willing to spend on it! 10000 combined miles on citgo for me and a buddy without a single problem and cleaner valves then other buddies. Its just funny how many sheeple are suckered into paying so much for oil because of a good marketing campaign! People are so brainwahsed by the amsoil marketing that they even put the stickers all over there sled which i will never understand. I laugh when people spend more than 20bucks on gallon of oil. just bought 4 gallons for the year, total at FF was 47.16 plus tax.

P.S And for those of you worried about burndowns? They are almost never related to to oil in anyway.

I am no fan of citgo either,but I did some investigating on ethanol. And they "Citgo" are the only gas station that's not using it in their gas.

I too had reservations on using Citgo Sea & Snow oil, but I researched the quality of the oil first and then ran it the last 2 years in all 3 of my sleds. I just cleaned the RAVE valves in my 'doo yesterday and they were just as clean if not cleaner that when I ran other "performance oils". No problems with fouling plugs either, I'm sold.

just my .02

Happy (white) trails to all this year !

Well the debate for me is over, just got 4 gallons of Sea and Snow from Farm and Fleet on sale 12.99. My next question is I just picked up my new sled, it recommends 18 ounces of oil in the gas tank for the first tank. Anyone think it would be a bad idea to put Sea and Snow in the gas tank?? Will it mix with the Skidoo oil the dealer put in it?? I plan on running it down low the switching to Sea and Snow. Would I be wasting my time to empty the skidoo oil out?? I am an anal freak and sometimes do things that probably dont need to be done??? Thanks in advance

Get a turkey baster and pull 18-20 ounces out of your oil injection tank and add to your gas tank.

Run the skidoo oil until it gets low then remove the rest and refill with S&S.....

There is no problem with mixing Sea and Snow with other oils...if you want to see for yourself, just put some in a cup and give it a quick swirl.

Anyone actually had any problems with their sled directly related to oil (not including running out of it)?
