Just picked one up yesterday and PP is the only oil I have in that weight. Just need to make sure PP works with a wet clutch. Thanks
Will PP 10-30 work in a yamaha blaster?

What does the owners manual state? PP is not JASO MA certified so I would have to say no.
The book says
10w-30 type SE
API Service SE, SF, SG or higher.
Then below it cautions not to use a diesel oil of CD or higher and not to use Energy Conserving 2 or higher. Thats about it.

I wouldn't do it, but that's just me. Go get some Rotella T6 5w-40. Works well in stuff with wet clutches.
How about Mobil 1 5-40 TDT oil? I have that on hand.

Never heard of Energy Conserving 2 lol...wonder what that is....unless they would be referring to the now "reworded" Resource Conserving? Really....what IS the difference between the 2? Just a difference in "energy" or "resources" change per CAFE? Anyone know? Or would this happen to be covered in the Oil Bible 101?
But yea, if it doesn't spec anything else, as far as JASO MA, etc...the PP should work...

Looked again, book is a 2004. It says not to use an energy conserving II. I had not heard of that either and googled it and came up with some info on it.

+1 T6 or Triple T would get my vote...

Isn't that a two stroke engine w/ a wet clutch behind it? Or was that just the original Blaster 200 that I seem to recall...?

Yes this is a 2 stroke and the oil is for the transmission.
Wikipedia told me it has a wet clutch from 1986 to 2006. It's an 04.
Does the crank bearing get oiled up from motor oil or from the oil in the gas?

Crank is oiled from what you put in the gas. Trans oil lubes the trans and clutches.

Use the TDT. It's expensive for a 2 stroke trans, but it will work just fine.
It almost does not matter what you use in that trans. ATF works well in 2 stroke transmissions.

+2 I used to run T6 in my 04 cr250 and have since switched to Triple T due to oil prices going up and since I change it pretty often.

What is Triple T? I googled and couldnt find it.
I got it, in my climate in the winter I would defiantly want the 5w-40 in the winter. Thanks
