Also, if the snowmobile is to remain on a

trailer after filling the gas tank, the bed of

the trailer must be maintained level to

prevent gasoline from draining out

through the gas tank vent hose.

Break-In Gas/Oil Mixing 

Instructions (4000/8000)

Before mixing gasoline and oil, make sure

the oil is at room temperature (20° C/68°

F). Use a U.L. approved 22.7 L (6 U.S.

gal.) gasoline container for mixing the gas-

oline and oil. To properly mix the fuel at a

100:1 ratio, use the following procedure:

1. Pour gasoline into the gasoline con-

tainer until approximately half full.

2. Pour 236 ml (8 fl oz) of the recom-

mended 2-cycle oil into the gasoline

container.

3. Install cap on gasoline container and

shake the mixture vigorously.

4. Fill the gasoline container with gaso-

line; then cap the gasoline container

and shake the mixture vigorously.

5. Using a fine-mesh screened funnel,

pour the fuel mixture from the gasoline

container into the snowmobile gas tank.

Engine Break-In

The Arctic Cat engine (when new or

rebuilt) requires a short break-in period

before the engine is subjected to heavy

load conditions.

6000

During the break-in period (one tank of

fuel), a maximum of 1/2 throttle (with

varying throttle positions) is recom-

mended; however, brief full-throttle accel-

erations and variations in driving speeds

contribute to good engine break-in. 
Premixing fuel and oil during the break in

period is not required. With the oil delivery

control strategy of the electronic oil pump,

the pump will automatically compensate

and deliver a richer fuel-to-oil ratio during

the engine break-in period. 
Some may choose to pre-mix the first

tank and if this is the case, a pre-mix ratio

of 100:1 is acceptable. A pre-mix ratio of

100:1 combined with the richer fuel/oil

delivered from the electronic oil pump

during break-in may cause additional

smoke at start up and idle.

4000/8000

Arctic Cat requires that the first tankful

of fuel be premixed at a 100:1 ratio in all

oil-injection models.

NOTE: During this period, verify

the oil in the oil tank is decreasing
with use.

During the break-in period, a maximum

of 1/2 throttle is recommended; however,

brief full-throttle accelerations and varia-

tions in driving speeds contribute to good

engine break-in. After one (1) tankful

break-in period, the snowmobile may be

taken to an authorized Arctic Cat Snow-

mobile dealer for a checkup. This

checkup is at the discretion and the

expense of the snowmobile owner.

! WARNING

Always fill the gas tank in a well-venti-
lated area. Never add gasoline to the
snowmobile gas tank near any open
flames or with the engine running. DO
NOT SMOKE while filling the gas tank.
Do not sit on the snowmobile without
first installing the gas tank cap.

CAUTION

Never mix oil and gasoline in the
snowmobile gas tank.

! WARNING

Always fill the gas tank in a well-ven-
tilated area. Never add gasoline to the
snowmobile gas tank near any open
flames or with the engine running.
DO NOT SMOKE while mixing fuel or
filling the gas tank.

CAUTION

DO NOT exceed the one (1) tankful
limitation of a 100:1 gas/oil break-in
mixture. Continuous use of a gas/oil
mixture could cause spark plug foul-
ing and excessive carbon buildup.
