Fuel System Antifreeze
NOTE:
Fuel antifreeze may add alcohol to fuel which may lead to
disqualification by technical inspection after the race.
When using oxygenated fuel, additional gas line antifreeze or water
absorbing additives are not required and should be not used.
When using non-oxygenated fuel, we highly recommend the use of
isopropyl base gas line antifreeze in a proportion of 150 mL (5 U.S.
oz) of gas line antifreeze added to 40 liters (10-1/2 U.S. gal) of gas.
This precaution is in order to reduce the risk of frozen carburetor(s)
which may lead, in certain cases, to high fuel consumption or severe
damage to engine.
IMPORTANT:
Use only
methyl hydrate free
gas line antifreeze.
Recommended Oil
CAUTION:
Use only oil that can flow at - 40°C (- 40°F).
Oil must be mixed with fuel in proper ratio in a jerrycan then, be
poured in the fuel tank.
Use only two-stroke engine injection oil, sold by authorized SKI-DOO
dealers.
