They just call those "consumer engines" in Cat talk. No aftermarket company sells those. That's just Poo stuff. The argument on HCS about "which Poo durability kit was best" was almost as good as "which oil works best to get my Poo to 1000 miles?"

My poos seem to hold up well with no durability kit and aftermarket oil. 6000 miles on the 800 now.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am running lucas oil in my Poo, $30 gallon and thats only because i could not find mystik for less. I watched Spump pour every kind of oil in his 800's and they kept running.

Its always around $18-$22 at farm and fleet. It gets sold out quick tho. Ive already gone thru about 5 gallons this year. http://d2ul0w83gls0j4.cloudfront.net/products/62/300/620304.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think the lucas may be made in the same plant. same color and smell. i got it shipped prime for $30 gallon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lot of guys around here run Klotz religiously but it can be expensive too. I pulled my exhaust valves on the 800 just under 5000 miles because i heard they need regular cleaning. Virtually no carbon build up and they were all oily. I didnt even wipe them off, I put them right back in. Lesson learned. Then i fired on all of those polaris faggots that say you are stupid to not run only VES while posting pictures of their gummed up exhaust vaves.

The only ones I’ve ever had to clean were a cat 440 driven by my wife. These poos definitely drink some oil. I’m on gallon #3 and it’s almost done at 1200 miles.

I haven't pulled the valves since they went to eraves with too many pieces but the doo oil always burned clean on my old valves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
