    **Official 4 Tec Oil Thread**

    I've been researching what oil to put in my 08 RXT-X and found a few.
    So with mods/admins permission I would like to start a thread that is oil only and hopefully will become sticky. Oil that worked and oil that failed.
    There are so many oils out there that technically work with 4-tecs (N/A and Blown) and would like to try to list them in one location for reference.

    So far what I have found is the following will "technically" work with an RXT-X, all being 10w40 4-stroke

    Amsoil Formula Marine Synthetic Motor Oil (WCF)
    BRP 4 Stroke Oil 293600121 (new symi synthetic oil for all 4-Tec engines)
    Castrol Act>evo Semi-Synthetic <-what i'm using (20w50 due to NM heat and altitude)
    Honda HP4S
    Honda HP4
    Mobile 1 MX4T
    Motul 7100
    Royal Purple Max-Cycle
