Tyrespinner,

Did I read that right...? You said you were doing your first oil change right? Haven't you had that thing for like 3 months!?!?!?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] I hope I'm wrong or I read that wrong lol.

 

thanks bigger..

 

The first time I do it myself...I brought it in for an inspection and service after I bought it...


And I haven't put all that many hours on it either...Always something not working 100%...but now I think it's gonna be fine if I can clean that oil tank screen and find a short oil filter.

I found it to it is in page 84 of my owners manual IT SAYS EVERY 200 HRS

But better safe tthan sorry i will do mine every oil change, thanks for the tip

 

my screen has been out 3 times now - I do it once a year without fail.
But I have never found the slightest little bit of anything on it - its been totally clean every time. but as always, better safe than sorry!

 

LUCKY YOU!

Hightower,
What oil do you run? I run Klotz techniplate 4 stroke synthetic 10W-40 & my screen has always been clean. Just thought maybe the guys with the sludge might want to switch oils....

 

BUMP.




its that time again to remind all the new guys to the forum to check thier OIL TANK SCREEN on thier next oil change.

Does every Dry sump system have one? If not, why do we have to have it at all? Are the deposits something that gets in the system and has to go through the motor to get to the filter?
