- Someone asked so I made a vid showing how to change your oil.
* I made a better video. * • How to Change Your Oil... *
I would suggest using Full synthetic SAE 10w30 4 cycle engine oil. I just use the cheapest full synthetic I can find. Not needed to use motorcycle or special lawn equipment oil! Just change it often, that is the most important thing, as there is no oil filter. Capacity is .63qt. (.6L). A little over half of a quart bottle.

Dude thank u for real ur basic videos about these are helping me so much I appreciate it dude
Make more basic maintenance vids like these very helpful!
Thanks. I definitely will.
Thanks for making the video
No problem! thanks for watching.
This vid was very helpful
Good vid and congrats on the number of views. I use a large pan. After the drip slows to a stop I grab the brake and wheelie the bike up to get all the oil out. In the front of the block there is a valley where extra oil sits. I think it's worth it to get it out.
Haha, thanks man. Funny how the algorithm liked this video! 🤷♂️ I have an oil catch pan now but last time I used it on my big road bike the flow overwhelm the hole and it started bubbling up and splashed oil all over my exhaust. I cheaped out at Harbor freight.. I guess I have to get a better one! LOL
@@bwxmoto BTW. I called monsterscooter parts today and they said the 60 tooths may be coming in by the end of this month. I preordered back in June. I wonder when they will turn on the orders through Amazon. With shipping my order is $28. Seems everywhere else a 60 tooth is $40+.
Yeah when they were on Amazon they were about $20 with free shipping! That's how I bought all mine. First one was black, second two silver/ gray. But given the scarcity I'd pay $30 no problem, who knows how ling the stock will last. Probably not long with pent up demand! I have one waiting to go on my 2nd CT200U-EX eventually.
You can get a heavy duty set of rear axle adjusters at monsterscooterparts.com . Also, if that new belt burns up as quick as the original try a Pix belt, they are Kevlar reinforced and should hold up much longer.
Thanks! I'll check 'em both out.
Your bike is set up just like mine a predator with a stage 1 exhaust stock air filter and a torque converter
This is an old video, I only ran it like that for a week until my air filter was delivered. Check out later vids in this playlist. czcams.com/video/lQ6hI5_l8kI/video.html I have a header and performance air filter. It would never run right with stock air filter and header at least with the jet kit I had or stock jets.
so you can fill the oil with it leaning on the kick stand it doesn't have to be level?
Yeah you might want to stand it upright and get the level up towards the fill opening but not overflowing.
My CT200u-EX has no oil extension, not does it have a plug as described in the manual. The only thing I see are bolts that hold the engine together.
Stock engine I wonder? Must not be.
were can i get the yellow cap thing to cap off the oil fill
I'm sure you can but them, but I never had to.. I bet at a lawnmower shop they would have them though.
Do u think with the governor delete and a few mods like upgraded carburetor instance exhaust, would 10w-40 be good to use ? Or just stick with the 10w-30 ?
Hey just saw this comment.. Either really is fine. if you ride where it gets above 90F degrees I'd use 10w-40.
@@bwxmoto thanks for the reply.
Thank you, I was just about to ask this question. I guess for where I’m at I should use the 10w-30
how long should i keep my oil in before changing it
The first oil change I would say 1/2 hour or so running, then change it since engine is breaking in. After that I would change it quite often since there is no oil filter, and use synthetic oil. 10w-30 is fine unless you are running in very cold temperatures then 20w-30. If running in extremely hot temps over 100F maybe 15w-40 or 15w-50.
How often do you need to change the oil and how much does it take?
I guess it's about 0.6 quarts but you fill it till it's full basically. Till the level comes up to the opening. And change it often. Maybe every 10 hours of running? Not sure. I just change it a couple times a summer if I ride quite a bit.
can not changing the oil cause it not to start? or if its not starting its most likely somethint else unrelated to the oil?
Nor really. Most likely it’s the gas and carb causing problems.
My chain is catching on the same part yours was. Can you explain to me a bit more how you fixed it please?
Reece McKee I got a #41 chain. I think #420 chain will work fine too. Also could use spacers.
I think I ordered the wrong CVT but not sure. Looking back it was only described as working with a #41 chain. Probably had more to do with spacers provided with torque converter than the torque converter itself.
@@bwxmoto I have #420 chain. I was thinking of putting a spacer or washer between the torque converter and the teeth
Reece McKee yeah I had a thicker #40 chain in vid. Problem is you need a notched spacer I think.. not just a washer. Can do it just not as easy to find locally.
Gonna pick mine up soon is this predator expensive? I won’t upgrade right away but I plan on it soon
Used to be $94. Now they are more.
Do you need to put oil in it when you get it?
MadMooCow27 7 Yes definitely. There’s a little oil in there, but I’d drain that first.
How often should I change my mini bikes oil?
I'd use synthetic, that'll last a little longer, but that's a hard question to answer. I think it depends on how hard you ride it. Just putting around is different than full throttle constantly on a 100 degree day in the dust..
If you ride a lot, I'd say one a month. If you hardly ever ride it, once a year. All depends. If it's been a while and you've been riding it a lot, change it. More the better with these but don't have to after every ride or anything like that.
What measurement are you using to release the oil?
I think it's a 10mm and 13mm. Can't remember, I had those dual wrenches that are both metric and SAE in the vid and I said 3/8" in vid for the drain plug so that's probably a 10mm. Can hold the drain extension with pliers, but I think it's 13mm.
Where u get the muffler
It was at OMBWarehouse. Check out the description, there's a link for it in there.
Sweet man i use valvoline though
Yeah Valvoline is good. For these I just run the cheapest full synthetic I can find from a known brand though.
What octane of gas do u use n ur mini bike, 87 or 92?
Ethanol free only. And the only ethanol free I can get is 90 octane so I run that. But all my minibikes are stock compression so I’d run 87 if I could. Only need higher octane if compression ratio is higher than 10:1. These are like 9:1 or something like that. My road bike is 13.5:1, so need high test in that for example. But I run 90 e-free in that for winter storage.
@@bwxmoto cool ty 4 that nfo sir
How often do you change oil
just saw this comment. I'd say it depends on how hard you run the engine but in general maybe every 50 hrs or so but more often is better with these little engines because there's no oil filter at all.
How much oil does it take? Half a bottle?
I can’t remember off the top of my head but it is about a half bottle.
Pretty sure it’s .63 quart
Van McDaniel That sounds familiar.
How many time you change ya oil a month?
??? ??? At the time I had changed engines, so first oil change after breaking in each engine, and one other time on second engine.
??? ??? BTW I go by time on engine and how hard I run engine on the minibike. And just looking how black and thin oil is. Could be once a month or once a season depending.
I got mine at christmas and did not change it until june
Do you need to drain the gas when not using? My boys don’t ride it enough (of course). And I notice it runs rough.
Yeah you really should get some ethanol free gas and only use that with these engines. It'll save the carburetors. I'd still turn gas to OFF position and let the bike idle until it quits if you do not plan on riding it for a while. And siphon old gas out and put in a full fresh tank of ethanol free. Don't just mix new gas with old gas. Start the bike up and let it warm up once a month. All my 4 minibikes are still running strong doing that. You can get a new carb on ebay/ amazon for $7 but it's a little bit of a job to install but not bad at all. Then it'll run like new again if your old carb is too messed up. Can clean them but for $7? Just change it out. Still can clean out dirty one and use it as a spare or if your new one gets clogged up.
What kind of oil did you use
Marco Ferraro cheapest synthetic I could find.
BWX thx could I use that same oil you did on my Coleman ct100u
Marco Ferraro actually I'm not sure what kind of oil that takes but it is probably 10 W 30.
BWX yep that's what it says thx very much
My mini bikes axel bolts are stuck and won’t loosen so I can’t tighten the chain what should I do
Get some penetrating lube and put it on the bolt threads near the nut and let it soak in for a while and try again. It that does not work, get a blow torch and heat up the bolt- doesn't have to be red hot, and that will work for sure. Be careful though. And use good strong wrenches. You can also but a bar on the end of the wrench for more leverage.
BWX thanks this should help
No problem! I meant to say heat the NUT, not the bolt. I had one stuck on my riding lawnmower deck spindle I needed to replace and I heated it with a propane torch after an hour of fighting with it, and it came right off with heat.
BWX does your still run good
Oh yeah it rips! With the mods it goes about 47mph and will climb the side of a mountain. If I am climbing a lot I go through torque converter belts and I constantly need to tighten chain because it stretches, but yeah it runs great.
What oil do you use?
Liam Michi For my mini- bike, cheapest synthetic I can find
BWX thanks for the response. If I have a 100% stock Coleman what should be the first thing I upgrade?
Liam Michi I would say either nothing at all or a predator 212 hemi and TAV30 swap. Maybe new brake shoes depending on how well the stock ones work.
So its not worth it to get a performance kit?
Liam Michi nope. I’d put that money towards a $99 hemi and $65 TAV which makes the biggest difference. Or else I’d just keep it stock and ride it.
Is that regular motor oil
Yup I just got 10-w30 synthetic. Doesn't really matter brand, doesn't have to be special motorcycle oil either. But I like synthetic for these bikes because there is no oil filter. Need to change oil often too.
Can it be 4 cycle
Jbob 19 definitely for 4 cycle 👍
@@bwxmoto I have 5w-30 would that be fine?
Yup 5w-30 is fine. Only difference from 10w-30 is you can run it in colder temperatures.
Aye man ya still got the bike? Down to go on a ride some time ? I got the same bike trying to fine people to go ride with I’m in casa grande Arizona
I would but it's a 35 hour drive and 2400 miles away LOL
Yeah I still have all my bikes since 1994. 🤘
@@bwxmoto and the mini bike still on the original motor ?
@@troyholland3436 Nope it's got a Predator 212 hemi with new carb, jet, emulsion tube, header, RLV muffler, air cleaner and TC, 9t -60t, and slightly modded governor for more RPM. Goes about 50 mph down a hill, 40 mph up it.
@@bwxmoto did the other motor blow? Or just got worn out ?
@@troyholland3436 Nope it was basically new when I removed it.
why will the headfer mess it up?
The new jetting needs to have both air filter and header. If you just run a header, the stock jetting makes it run too lean.
im guessing thats bad lol.is it ok if i do it for a few weeks untill i get money for that other stuff? i dont know shit about engines, just got one last week and just got the header all by her self
Yeah might not run good but shouldn't hurt it for a little while.
The engine takes .6 fluid ounces
Yup- in description "Capacity is .63qt. (.6L). A little over half of a quart bottle."
Or 2 and a half cups lol
LOL.. yeah the thing is though, you just fill it up to the top of the threads on the filler opening. You can't really over-fill it. So you don't really need to know how much it takes unless you don't have enough to do the oil change, but most people would have at least 1qt of oil to do the change. But it's good to know I guess.
Didnt show what type oil after all that wtf
It doesn't matter. Cheapest 10w 30 Synthetic I could find, but it doesn't matter.
BWX will 4 cycle synthetic work?
Nice vid but next time try showing what your doing camera sucked only thing you can see is where your hands are not what your working on but nice now I know where to fill the oil
czcams.com/video/L256U4Q_LGg/video.html
What oil weight
Ben Aubrey I think it was 10w 30.
Terrible camera work
No narration during
No explanations
No idea what side of the bike he's on
No idea what size wrench hes using
No idea what kind of oil he uses. If I'm going to look behind the eyes of some guy changing the oil I would love some more talking and explaining about what he's doing what size wrench what kind of oil where these parts of the engine are located what side of the bike is he on etc. Extremely unhelpful video.
Read the description. I can't help what videos youtube push on people. This vid does have problems but it's not that bad, so I left it up.
