What does everyone use in their chain cases? My Polaris buddy says 10w40 is what he uses. This is the first year I've had a sled in a long time, and I was just wondering what was best. BTW, It's a 98 Vmax 700sx.

ATF has great detergents and retains its vescocity(sp) at cold temps.

Amsoil chaincase oil all the way, I have put on many, many thousands of miles over the years all with amsoil.Its a very good product and even seems to stay clean longer than the oem oil.

I have a couple of 1998 600sx's and bought the service manual from yamaha last season and according to that the yamaha uses 75 or 80 weight gear oil. I use the amsoil chain case fluid and it works great.
