Does anybody use the castrol or motomaster formula 1 tc-w3 sled injection oil? Or does it have to be synthetic?

I use VES gold, it works well and my buddy uses it in his 05 rev and the Doo stuff really stinks when used. My wife is sensitive to the fumes and the VES stuff has a low odor when burning. Cycle works has it in clear jugs for about 44 bucks/ 4 litres.

Im running Intercepter!! Amsoil has relabeled the bottles for Doo Etecs. They did extensive testing on the Etec. They have been using similar stuff in the outboard etecs for years! It is good to go, get a prefered customer membership and price is excellent.
i run it in my 2010 m8, my bud was using it in his new etec 800 since new!! good to go, smells nice too!

You might be surprised on results. Been using Spectro syn snow for about 5 years now. Valves stay very clean. Oil burns clean.

Has anybody had issues making warranty claims from using non skidoo oil in an E-TEC? That has always been my biggest concern and reason why I always pony up for the expensive yellow jugged skidoo stuff. My last sled (800 ptek) made it to 4000miles before cooking the top end running the co-op synthetic injection oil.

Last I checked Shell oil is $59.99 per 4L at Canadian Tire. Doo synthetic is $45 per 4L. Ipone is MSRP $62.99 some dealers offer for cheaper. I was getting it for $50 per 4L. Ipone and Doo oil no issues and get high mileage. No personal experience with Shell.

Walmart has the Shell for $43/5l regular price. Better than Canadian Tire on sale. I have been running it for a few years now.
