- I change the oil in my 2018 Ski Doo ACE 900
Dino’s Tinker Shed, S1-Ep 35. Ski Doo 900 ACE oil change
In this episode I will walk you through the oil change process for a 2018 Ski Doo Renegade Enduro, with the 900 ACE four stroke engine.
As always you can skip through the video using the time code chapters below the description if there is a section you are interested in.
In the video, I will show you what comes in a BRP oil change kit for the 900 ACE, where your drain bolts are located, how to remove the muffler (optional) if you so choose, how to change the oil filter and fill up the machine when you are done.
The 900 ACE uses 0W-40 full synthetic motor oil and I use BRP’s own brand in my sled. In the kit you will also receive a new oil filter, an O ring for the oil filter cup and two copper crush washers that are used to replace the washers on the main and secondary drain bolts. BRP recommends the replacement of the O ring and copper washers at every oil change and this is why the oil change kit is a good value as it has everything you need in one package.

Fantastic video! Your lighting, the editing, the music , your calming voice haha!
Makes “The Job” like therapy!
Would love for you to continue all maintenance procedures. ie Gearcase oil change
Belt change
Lubrication.
Thanks for the video. First time I tried changing the oil before watching the video, I stripped the main drain screw. I didn’t get totally underneath it when taking it off. It was on an angle and stripped. I bought some “torx out” heads and will try again with your video. I do have an AC delco snowmobile/rv/cycle lift that I’ll use so I’m directly under the sled looking at the drain bolts versus an angle.
Thank you for the comment and I am sorry to hear about your first attempt, I know I have done that myself. A lift defiantly helps get the right angle and makes the job much easier.

Good job Dino!! I own an Enduro 900 Ace 2018 like yours and your videos are therefore quite helpful to me - clear precise explanations without any rush and a description of the tools and sizes needed to do the job, which most videos don't include. This is indeed a beautiful machine and a great engine.
I really like mine allot, can't wait for snow LOL
Dino
I'm so impressed with your tutorials, so calm and very informative. Thank you Dino.
Thank you I am glad you enjoy the content.
Dino
Bring on the snow! Great Video!
Helpful video! Appreciate the effort
Excellent video! Thank you very much :)
Thanks Dino- a useful video - I think this will be handy for people who want to do their own service (don't we all? - I have been doing service on my bikes and cars for fifty years and still enjoy keeping them in good condition). Dino you supply good safety information regarding opening the Tinker Shed when the engine is running.
Thanks for the comments Mal, I've found that most of these skills are transferable to most engines, thanks for the comment on the ventilation, in any shop without a fume extractor it is important to get good cross flow when running an engine.
Thanks again for the feedback.
Dino
Great video! Thank you! Safe riding this year!
Thank you for the comment.
Dino
Great video
Nice job Dino, I am seriously considering that model for next season.
It is a very nice sled, the air ride is a great option.
Thanks for the comment.
Dino
Nice job Dino. Very informative. Like how you made a custom spring loader. Happy thanksgiving from the Costanzos from across the pond.
Thank you Johnny, glad you enjoyed it
Dino
Excellent thank you
Hi Dino nice video, very helpful. Can share the skidoo lift you use. I would like to purchase a lift for my grand touring 900 ace turbo
Thank you, I'm glad you found the video helpful. The lift I use is actually home made but patterned off commercially available lifts. I actually owned one that came from Royal Distributing here in Canada and it was much lighter weight than the one I have now but it does work. It is on sale at Princess Auto in Canada right now www.princessauto.com/en/750-lb-snowmobile-service-lift/product/PA0008328270 for $230.00.

@@DinosTinkerShed i tried to order the lift you suggested, they do not ship to Ohio in USA.
That not very friendly of them. I would imagine there are a few retailers in the US that sell similar units, I am just not as familiar with the dealers down there. I checked Harbor Freight but they do not carry one. Sorry, I wish I could help more.

@@DinosTinkerShed Thank You
Full synthetic oil?
Yes the kit uses full synthetic.
