Not good.
Here is a very well done clip on changing the oil on a 500 HO. Shows how to clean the screen and bleed the oil pump.

and some people wonder how come the drain plugs get rounded off. well, if they quit using the hospital ends of the wrench, or at least use it in the right direction, they might be surprised.

Those drain plugs require a 14mm wrench. A 9/16 will fit but they fit lose. If they are tight a 9/16 will ruin the plug.

I'm about ready to throw my standard set of tools away. It seems everything I own requires metric tools now.
Thank you new world economy.

The 500,425,455 (Maybe more) are Japanese Fuji/Mitsubishi motors. So they will be metric.

I'll bet he gets alot of oil in the airbox from the breather tube on the oil tank, if he would read an owners manual it would tell him it holds 2 quarts
