you could try draining all the oil out and filling it with gas..



but remove the sparkplug and unhook the plug in your cdi box to prevent spark.

and turn it over a few times make the wheels turn , and than draining it and putting in the right oil , i know this sounds like a harsh idea , but gas will cut the oil and over-power it with lots of it. and it will also clean out any sludge and buildup in thier.



maby it clean your clutchplates at the same time.</end quote></div>

Good plan done it myself before but kerosene is a better choice than gas.On a side note didn't know that about diesel oil.I have a 55 gallon drum of it next door and I just paid 5.50 per qt for yamalube

Sea Foam works better than either gas or kerosene.

But it's more expensive too.

Can anybody tell me what the type of oil this guy put in his tranny had anything to do with a "sloppy and lose" shifter?
"Dificult switching other gears', yes I can see. But a "sloppy and lose" shifter????
Some of you are acting like the guy put sand, dirt and water in the tranny!!!!
Good God people, get a grip!!!!
