Hockey390 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Hey, I have my oil totally drained, and I know I have the right oil already, because I have added it before, but I dont know how much to add?!?! Please post quick, I have no manual and want to get this done on my lunch break (ends in 10 minutes) THANKS! Quote
Big Blue Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 it will say on your clutch cover i think it is 1.7L, just under 2qt i think. Quote
kcroyalsfan69 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Yeah, it's either 1.6 or 1.7 quarts, just throw in a quart and a half, wait a few seconds and check it. Quote
kcroyalsfan69 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 is it safe to add less? Yeah, its not any big deal, just as long as its on the dipstick somewhere, then you can add it up to the full mark. Quote
Cotton eyed Joe Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Hockey, if I were you, I'd put at least the 1 3/4 quarts in it. I would rather have a little more oil than I need, that take a chance on the push rod and balls not having any oil on them. Granted, you don't want to dump much more than that in there, but I think in this situation a little more would do less damage, than not enough. Quote
Hockey390 Posted April 1, 2004 Author Report Posted April 1, 2004 it says 1500 cm^3 boy oh boy i wish the US used metric! I just realized that I grabbed the wrong stuff when I picked up my shee the other day.. I grabbed my brake fluid and not my oil =( I will pick some oil up later today, any suggestions on oil type? I think before I used just a 2 stroke synthetic or something like that.. Got it at a gas station. Now that this turned into not a need post fast message, Please list what type of oil you suggest for my tranny. THANKS Quote
Hockey390 Posted April 1, 2004 Author Report Posted April 1, 2004 i just wondered because i thought I only had 1 quart =) but i dont have any...so the "can you add less" question no longer will apply. thanks for fast posts guys, i can always count on you Darrin Quote
banshee76179 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 1.6 quarts just changing the oil 1.8 quarts after rebuild Quote
Big Blue Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 any quality 10w-30 will work just fine, i used 20w-50 in my last change and it works just fine also, what ever you get make sure you DONT use synthetic. Quote
Hiram Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I love the Honda Pro 250r oil. Ir comes in a red round bottle, works great Quote
banshee76179 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 what ever you get make sure you DONT use synthetic. what is wrong w/it!! Quote
rebelbanshee2 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 i put in 1.5 liters of golden spectro 85w gear oil Quote
Hockey390 Posted April 2, 2004 Author Report Posted April 2, 2004 I just got some Pennzoil High Mileage Vehicle SAE 10w-30 Motor Oil, shall that be fine? Just want the OK before I pour it in... I'm sure using the wrong crap would be a LARGE pain.. Darrin Quote
