After this weekends ride I now have 70 hours on the Polaris 10W50HD. No hard riding or mud usage just normal trails and very little low gear. I ran it over my normal 50 just to see how it will do. I should have it changed tomorrow and in the mail. It takes a couple of weeks to get the results.

Greetings,
I am replacing the oil tank on my Sportsman 500. I bought a used aluminum tank from eBay and was concerned about the history (and the black goo when I took off the drain plug), so I ordered a gasket and split it open to clean it out.

I bought the 96-03 service manual, but was surprised that replacing the oil reservoir or opening it to clean, was not included in the manual.

Questions:
Where can I find info/steps for oil tank replacement and cleaning out the oil tank?
What is the torque spec for the oil reservoir bolts?

Thanks in advance for your help.

So I’m fairly new around here, and need to do a rear tranny fuild change, so I searched a few threads that mention "chain case" lube as being a great choice instead of the Polaris stuff……plus I can probably find it a lot closer to home. But the folks at multiple auto-parts stores don’t know what it is.

So where can I find it, and what are the options? Are there different viscosity options, different brands, etc?? Thanks for whatever advice folks can provide. BTW, I have a 2012 Sportsman HO with EBS.

Hi Folks
I just purchased my first atv yeaterday, a 1998 Polaris (of course) Xplorer 400. I did not get a manual for it so my question, first of many, is what type of 2 stroke oil should I use? Short of going to Polaris and buying theirs.

Thanks in Advance
