Hey all, just figured I’d pop in and say hi. Just bought a ’96 Fourtrax 300 2wd from an older gentleman who used it for hunting and slow trail riding. All the maintenance was done regularly on it as well. It needs a little bit of work, new rear brakes and a couple bearings, but I’m not particularly mechanically inclined, so I’ll probably be finding someone to take care of that for me.

However, if anyone could link me to a download for a service manual, it’d be nice to have anyways. One thing I was concerned about is what to use for engine oil. I’ve got a couple of bottles of April 4 Cycle Engine Oil, and they say they’re designed for ATV’s, Motorcycles, and Snowmobiles. It’s all in french first though, it’s from a Quebec Company and I’ve never heard of it. I’m assuming it’d be safe for me to use for my next oil change, even though it doesn’t specifically state it’s synthetic or safe for wet clutches. Pretty sure my father was running it in his Suzuki Vinson, but I’d rather be safe than sorry. Also, what should I use for oil in the rear diff?

Sorry for all the questions :p
