greelynick Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 hello i just bought a banshee tonight and im new to everything. i wanted to do a complete fluid change on the entire quad and i mean every fluid. if somebody could please fill me in on all the types of fluids on the quad, and what brands and types are the best to use. i also wanted to know which mixing ratio was the best to use for my gas, and which 2 stroke oil is best to mix with my gas.

91coupemike Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 You just opened a can of worms, I'll start off by what I'll be running in mine. Redline 2cycle oil for the fuel. 32:1 ATF +4 for the transmission Engine Ice for the coolant Dot 4 for the brakes. Yamaha says to use castor oil for the fuel, atv 10w30 for wet clutches in the trans and 50/50 antifreeze and dot 4 for the brakes. You're going to get a different answer from everyone, if you use ATF in the trans you need to change it more often. But oh well. I just got my banshee 2 weeks ago and I've already got myself knee deep in a top end rebuild and learning to fine tune carbs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadmonster Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Yep everyones diff. You can run any type of trans oil you want for wet clutch. I went to gear saver because i didnt like how type f needed to be changed so fast. But it works. Personally if your not just drag racing i dont see the point. I run 36:1 golden spectral. Its been run in my family's bikes for over 20 years. But again there's other oils . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 Klotz super T at 32:1, Mobil 1 10-30 in the tranny, 50/50 coolent, and dot 5 cause that's what I had laying around at the time. But like said above, your gonna get a bunch of different answers but honest question none the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
