I run a number of two cycle motorcycles and I'm familiar with the Fuji engine in the Polaris two stroke models. I have a twin cylinder Fuji two stroke engine in my snowmobile as well. Very durable and reliable engines that aren't too fussy about what oil you run in them. I'll tell you now that you don't need anything special for the oil. Any reasonable quality two cycle oil for air cooled engines will be more than sufficient. I use a product made by Imperial Oil which is an affiliate of Exxon Mobile. I buy it by the gallon. It's reasonably priced and a very good two stroke oil which will work either pre-mixed or via injector pump. I have two old 1970's Yamaha RDs that I cherish and wouldn't run anything in them if I didn't trust it. I prefer the Imperial/Mobil two cycle oil but if you get yourself a gallon of any leading brand two cycle oil, it will do just fine.

I just picked up some Quaker State 2 cycle oil for $2.67 a qt. Andy

 

Specially formulated synthetic blend 2-cycle engine oil provides excellent protection and performance in all 2-cycle injector or pre-mix non ves (variable exhaust system) applications. Formerly synthetic blend and premium blue, Polaris blue is the same synthetic blend, newer high quality formula.

What kind of oil does Polaris recommend?

PS-4 is designed specifically for Polaris 4-cycle engines and has high film strength and wear protection under extreme loads and temperatures.

What kind of oil does a Polaris ATV take?

2 quarts of PS-4 Full Synthetic 5W-50 Engine Oil. 1 Polaris Oil Filter, # 2520799.

Can I use any 2

On a two-stroke ATV, you will need to mix gasoline with oil specifically designed for two-stroke engines and then use that gasoline-oil blend in your ATV.

Does it matter what 2

A. No matter hold old, 2-cycle engines perform better and longer with oils specifically designed for that use. 2-cycle oils will be consumed during combustion in the piston chamber. Therefore, must be formulated with specific additive chemistry and base oils.
