What is a good cross-reference to the oil filter?
I ask because from the Alachua Fl. dealership to Valdosta GA is 2 hours.
Mobil 1 makes the 0-40w oil that's required for the oil change.
Have you found Rotella T to be a little thick for cold weather?? Rekluse recommends it, their explanation made sense, I made the switch, but haven't been riding yet. It's pretty chilly here in the wintertime and we usually switched to something lighter weight? My quad has enough starting issues as is.
Been throuh the prowlers top to bottom and back again.
First machine was 650 put 700bbk on then did a swap to a 1000 that was lots of work. But well worth it!!!
Flop diffs new engine mounts ect.. ect... 1000cc mounts backwards vs. the single cyl machines.
Lowered seats 3" cage drop4" ect.. ect...
Rotella makes a T-6 it is a syntehtic and is in almost everything I own now.
Was tired of this and that oil for everything.
It's a 5-40 synthetic and I am really liking it, Cold has not been a issue with it and I live in Alaska.
Wheelers, diesel & gas truck are all running the Rotella T-6
I have not run the synthetic but the conventional has worked well for me. I am in GA so it is usually not overly cold. The wheelers have been outside while camping in low 30's to high 20's and started just fine in the morning. I have noticed much better/smoother shifting in both the bike and the wheelers. The ATV's are both manuals.
thanks for the info guys that"s the same filter (fram ph6018) i use on my 700 king quad. and Ive been running a Rotella blend of 15-40 and 5-40 synthetic in that. I might just use the rotella 5-40 (t6 i think), if it seems like a good choice. I'd hate to have problems because of using the wrong oil.
Great thread-sticky it please! Great info, knowing what quality oil and filters will work. I think I will be able to use good oil and filters for an oil change for less than $65 now
Since this thread is old as dirt, Banning never saw this question. The K&N 138 is the same size as the stock, AC filter, but the K&N 621 is a longer version. That's what I use, it filters a little more oil.
Are there cross reference filters good for the Trail models as well? I tried looking up the oil filter number on K&N's web site and it shows that they have no parts available for the Trail models.
