Fuel Type ?
I got lucky and plan to pick up the new sled today at 9am sharp.
I recall Brock stating he used 89 octane(midgrade).
With the compression I don't think that's safe using 87 octane.
Plz post if your using 87,89, or 92+ octane.

Take it from a person who drove gasoline tanker. Use 92 or higher because most of your midgrade is mix by the driver. Some do it some don't.. Alot of your midgrade is only 87 and there's no way the station can tell. They just know that there underground tanks has gas in them. Just a heads up.

Why are you buying a snowmobile in the middle of summer?
