What kind of oil do I use for my RX1 snowmobile?
Synthetic lubes are a great addition to the RX1, the start better for sure. I use Amsoil, but Mobil 1 is also a great product also. Synthetic is great, but if you have any kind of an oil consumption problem it will make things worse.
Can a stock RX1 sled run high octane?
Octane booster will make your sled run like shit. stock Rx1/Apex/Attak etc will run dirty and boggy on premium. Unless the sled it turbo charged or modded to run high octane fuel, just run clean regular unleaded. Never gas the throttle when you cold start the sled on choke and the “low coolant indicator light” is flashing.
What’s the problem with my RX1 snowmobile?
I have an 03 RX-1 that is having the same problem with two of the four carbs. Two cylinders are running fine, however, on the two cylinders that are not firing, fuel is coming out of the overflow line.I have disassembled the carbs and checked the jets for plugs and they are clear.
When to use single weight oil on snowmobile?
If you do decide to go with the single weight go with the lower…you want thicker oil in the summer so it will not thin out as much in the heat and you want thinner oil in the winter so it lubes the moving parts much quicker in the cold.
