Wow thats expensive for the shell oil. I just got 2 cases for free and i found out i can buy it for 15.00 a jug(4L). Ill have to double check but the G/F's mom works at a wharhouse a desk person and she can get it for bulk price. Ill find out the details. She can get any oil for cheap compared to buying else were.
Thats the regular snowmobile oil, its usually $15-20/jug, this stuff is the synthetic. It usually runs $40/jug.
Nope this is the synthetic stuff. I know the difference. I have seen the 2 different ones on the shelf. Trust me. Post a pic of the bottle that you think it is and ill double check. But the stuff i got says shell full synthetic 2 stroke oil. Approved by skidoo,polaris, arctic cat, etc.
Anyone know who makes the BRP oils? BRP certainly doesn't. An MSDS sheet would tell us but what dealer is going to show you that given the price difference. Have been using the BRP synth but given the price difference bought a gallon of Shell Synth yesterday.
One oil company does not make BRP oils. Each of BRP's lubes use a proprietary formula that they developed with the help of companies that specialize in lubrication then the blending companies mix the oil formula on site and bottle it in cans, quarts, jugs, and barrels.
A blending company is who mixes the oil components and fills the containers for BRP, and for other companies also. A blending company is equipped for high speed filling of the plastic bottles, label application, and packaging. They receive the required base oils by tanker car, they store the special additive packages, and the dyes, solvents, and other ingredients that are used. They are basically an assembly line, not an oil company or a lab. The correct formula of chemicals and oils are mixed in large tanks, then put in bottles and barrels and shipped to BRP warehouses.
