Quicksilver Specialty Lubricants 2-Cycle Full Synthetic Snowmobile Oil

Has anyone ran it in there turbo?

 

[snow-doo]

Wonder why it would make any difference?Entire engine is the same,i don't think the engine even knows it has a turbo hooked to it.

When you blow up your turbsky skidoo will answer that question for you!!

Who knows how many guys riding Turbo’s use BRP oils anyways,jug says will not void warranty

 

[snow-doo]

Also does anyone know who makes BRP oil?I didn’t know they had a refinery!

 

[snow-doo]

Looks like Lube/Tech may make the oil for BRP,apparently they made the first fully synthetic snowmobile oil

Thats a FACT!!!!!

I think back to using semi -Synthetic in the 08 XP’s we had and the oil did not stop the ring land pins from coming loose and scoring the cylinders and taking out the lower ends.I had 5 motors replaced under warranty,then I went to double ring after market pistons and that solved that problem,I know this is about oil,just bringing up a bad memory .

I have a few gallons of XPS2 I need to use first.

I canceled my order. That’s been on the back of my mind, lol. I’m just pissed that all my ski bolts were loose again! I got hosed last time too. Ski bolt falls out high on the trail head. Two sleds in a row really has one wondering WTF are they doing in that shop! Rant over.

 

[snow-doo]

We will hope for better days ahead

Have never seen an oil analysis done on any of the past failures i had ,but who knows everyone gets unlucky some time .If the use of BRP oil was completely important the other oil companies would not be selling oil for snowmobile applications you wouldn't think

They just know they gotcha. It’s only a hundred dollars a year more to know that isn’t going to be an issue on a warranty claim.

Just saying dont give them any reason to deny a claim. If there is a loophole they will take it.

10 4 on the gotcha

Check into the quicksilver oil made by mercury outboards. We couldn't get etec oil and boss started looking around. Turns out our mercury outboards just came out with a fully synthetic 2stroke oil that meets every spec of brp. He called brp and warranty is still valid using this oil so we ordered a bunch of it. I think we pay like 25 a gallon so I'd imagine retail is in the low 40's. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it's something to look at. Mercury has been in the oil business a long time. I can get a part number next week when I'm back in town

Mercury is in the oil business? Okay ?
