Oil For Flat Tappet Cam Polaris 800 Engine?
A reader asks: I’ve got a Polaris Ranger 800XP. This engine has flat tappet cams, so it needs engine oil with high ZDDP levels. Do you have an engine oil that has enough zinc for this engine?
Our answer: Yes we certainly do. We offer an ATV/UTV engine oil that is designed to protect the flat tappet cams in your Polaris 800 engine. The “AUV50” AMSOIL 5W-50 ATV/UTV Synthetic Motor Oil contains a hearty 1240 ppm of ZDDP. This high amount of ZDDP makes this 5W-50 very suitable for your engine.
AMSOIL ATV/UTV 5W-50 was formulated specifically for Polaris 4-stroke engines. The flat tappet aspect of your 800cc engine was certainly a consideration when this oil was developed.
This AMSOIL 5W-50 ATV/UTV is available by itself (in US quart bottles) or with an oil filter in Polaris-specific ATV/UTV Oil Change Kits.
