Your Ski-doo dealer will wave his arms and try to tell you that using anything other than XPS 2T E-TEC Synthetic Oil in your Rotax E-TEC engine will have catastrophic results. However, he’s only telling you the partial truth.

It is true that if you cannot get away with using a cheap 2-stroke oil in your E-TEC engine. Ski-Doo’s E-TEC 2-stroke engines are among the most technologically advanced engines in the snowmobile industry. They employ direct injection and an on-board computer to deliver the appropriate amount of fuel and oil based on riding conditions. The E-TEC engine’s 2-stroke oil needs are regulated by thousands of computer calculations per second. Therefore, minimal oil is used and emissions are dramatically lowered.

Ski-Doo’s E-TEC engines do pack a punch in terms of horsepower per cc. The relatively small amount of injection oil that is metered out has to capably prevent wear and deposit formation.
We have a 2-stroke oil that is verified by field and lab testing to prevent wear. It also prevents RAVE valve deposits in Ski-Doo E-TEC engines. AMSOIL Interceptor Synthetic 2-Stroke Oil is an ultra-premium oil. It prevents wear, reduces friction, burns clean and flows in arctic weather. To prove our point, AMSOIL has performed a cache of testing to prove its worth in E-TEC engines. Interceptor has earned a legendary reputation in the snowmobile industry, so you won’t go wrong with this option.
