Fuel Recommendation

Polaris recommends using fresh Unleaded 91 Octane TOP TIER® Detergent Gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol purchased during the season of vehicle usage. This fuel will provide the best engine performance (starting, run quality, fuel economy, and power) and durability.

Octane Rating

Polaris recommends a minimum of 87 Octane (R+M/2) rated gasoline. Using lower octane gasoline could result in engine damage.

Ethanol Content

Polaris recommends gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol (E10). Higher levels of ethanol (ex. E15 and E85) may result in engine damage.

Detergent Gasoline

Polaris recommends Top Tier® Detergent Gasoline to keep the engine cleaner by reducing carbon deposits, which will help maintain engine performance and durability. Refer to www.toptiergas.com for a list of TOP TIER® Detergent Gasoline retailers. Alternatively, the logo shown below on the retailer’s fuel pump will confirm that TOP TIER® Detergent Gasoline is being dispensed.

If TOP TIER® Detergent Gasoline is not available, adding Polaris Carbon Clean to the fuel tank at every oil change will help reduce carbon deposits.

Seasonal Blends

Polaris recommends using gasoline that is purchased during the season the vehicle is being used, especially summer vs. winter. Between seasons, refineries typically change the gasoline blend to avoid temperature induced engine performance issues. Winter blend gasoline improves engine starting in cold weather and summer blend gasoline helps prevent vapor lock issues in hot weather.
