I'd drain the tank and carb just to get rid of the old fuel and any water or other garbage that may be in there. After that just put your new mix in and enjoy the ride.

I recommend Maxima 927 Castor if it is available near you. I live in CNY and a SKi-Doo/Suzuki dealer near me sells it...



Just mix up your new fuel and run it as long as whats in it is still good. I have switched/mixed oils with my oil injected sleds without draining the oil tanks and never had an issue. I also recently switched from Amsoil Dominator to Maxima in my R. Doesn't hurt a thing in my experience.
