Hello, What oil should I use in my Hensim Tierra 50cc 4 Stroke Quad? What comes in them? Thanks Alot. I have alot of info on these quads and parts but what oil to use has me confused... Thanks for the advice.

 

You want to use a motorcycle oil or 4 stroke motor oil. It does not matter if its synthetic just as long as its for 4 strokes ot motorcycles. These oils are for wet clutch applications. Regular car oil has friction modifiers that will eventually eat the clutch up. ANy auto parts has 4 stroke oil. 10w30/40 will be fine or even rotella t 15w40 diesel oil.

 

Thanks. This Quad is an automatic. No Clutch. Would it hurt to use Gastrol 10W40 Senthetic car oil? Thanks

 

Although the quad is an automatic,it has clutch discs.Go to your local auto parts store and buy 4 stroke atv or 4 stroke motorcycle oil.As stated before it will ad life to your discs.Regular car oil will work fine for the engine,but not good for the discs..

 

Insane is right it does have a clutch but only 1 gear. Automotive oil will burn up the clutch pack eventually.

 

You can use a synthetic diesel oil. Just make sure it does not have "Energy Conserving" written on the API starburst on the back of the bottle. I use an Esso XD-3 OW40 full synthetic and it works great.


Most car oils once they reach a 40 weight are not Energy Conserving also.

Motorcycle oils are usually rebadged and then they increase the price. There is no need to pay extra for that.
