2010 trx420fpa Should I stick with Honda oil and gear lube or go synthetic.

I have a 2010 Honda rancher at w Eps. I have done one oil change on it since I bought it using Honda oil and filters. I only use it around 3-4 times a year if i am lucky for a few hours each time. It is 6 years old now and i only have 80 hours on it and maybe 150 miles on it.
I was curious if I could use amsoil in the engine and front and rear differentials? I am a amsoil preferred customer so I get there oil at dealer cost and I use it in my motorcycle with no issues but I’m not sure how it will work with the auto transmission of my AT model. Will it cause any clutch slippage or do anything harmfull or be two slick (have to many feiction modifiers)for the clutch? Has anyone used amsoil in an AT model? Does it work? I am sure I can use it in the differentials with no issues. Thanks for the help.

02 scrambler 90 will not stay running?

I have 02 or so polaris 90 scrambler. I have put a new carb it with a manual choke. I disconnected the oil injection and have be putting in 50-1 pre mix. The machine starts right up and idles great as long as there is gas in it. It will drive for a short while then die out. I will start it again and same thing. I will get about 50-75 yards out and it dies. Any ideas here? I have cleaned and adjusted the carb numerous times.

Not good with wheelers I’m a car guy and just bought a TLD 04 predator. I rode it about 4 days ago and drove it to where it sits….went to go start it yesterday and it turns over followed by a VERY loud backfire. Will not start. Checked was out of fuel put fuel in it same issue. What I don’t understand is that I rode it to where it sits….I woukd like some Input on what to.do before I go tear it apart….fouled plug? I read the woodruf key shears but I’m just confused as to why it would run to where it sits a few days ago (only put about a half gallon of fuel in it) heard predators need a lot to start please help. Should I try to pop start I?

Juggernauts!

Got the new to me juggs on. Love the way they look and ride smoother than the 32" backs on hard pack. Haven’t had a chance to test them in the mud yet but c’mon, look at them! The wife can’t remember the name so she calls them the luggernuts lol.
