Synthectic Chain Case Oil ok for diamond drive??

[M7Man]

hey i was wondering if it would be ok to use some Synthetic Chain Case Oil in my 05 M7's diamond drive?

 

[kittycat]

no dont think that is a very good idea.. im pretty sure the only thing u can use are those tiny little expensive bottles of diamond drive oil..

I agree with that ^^^^^ I dont think you want to run anything then those 3 oz. bottles of ACT Gearcase Fluid.

dont waste your money on those little bottles of oil. i ran the arctic cat oil in my DDrive and i switched to syntheatics. sence then i have had cleaner oil changes then with the AC oil. i dont think there is any thing special about the AC oil.ran syntheaticsfor three years with no problems what so ever.

I run Amsoil chain case lube (which is 100% synthetic) and have had no problems with my DD.

I sold my sled with 5000 miles on it. I bought a new Crossfire 800LE and around 200 miles plan on pulling the DD apart for inspection and refill with Amsoil.

I am sure any good synthtic will work.but why bother a bottle of cat syn is like 12 bucks for 3 changes on 05.

I run Amsoil chain case oil also with no problems. Oil is cleaner on changes.

I too am very satisfied with series 2000 chaincase lube from amsoil. Oil stays cleaner longer and no failures with many miles

Amsoil chaincase oil is what I uses in my DD much cleaner and cheaper plus it is synthetic, freely flow in much cold climate, easy on DD bearings, so on

Its your sled and your choice. I researched it quite a bit. From what i understand cat and bdx are the only 2 designed specifically for the dd. why chance it? A 12oz bottle is 3 changes on an 05.

edit: 4 changes

Chance it? No, Amsoil recommonds Chaincase oil for DD. I did last two oil changes and was impressed with their cleanilness look after about 800 miles each time and I think I will run same oil much longer now....
