- Another of the service procedures on a 2014 Yamaha Grizzly 450 ATV. In this video I show you the correct procedure for changing the ATV's engine oil.
In the video I cover the procedure as per the Yamaha Workshop manual for draining the old engine oil, cleaning out the gauze filter, fitting a new cartridge filter & re-filling the engine with the correct amount of new oil.
All specifications & torque settings are included as is the type & quantity of oil that needs to be used. I also a couple of tips & tricks that make the job a little easier too...
Any questions or comments just leave them blow and I'll do my best to get back to you shortly...
Andy Mechanic!
Great video. I like that its not rushed.
Hi from Germany, just found your channel, I own a 2009 grizzly 450, super informative and very helpful,awesome!
Hope threre will be more in future.
So helpful. Really helps that you didn’t skip steps and explained why you were doing each part.
Thanks Waldo :-)
My only problem is I want to see more of what your hands are doing more that your face. Still very informative.
Great video, thanks for taking the time to put it together. Sending my boys out back this weekend to change the oil on their two Yamaha's and your video will be their required study material. Thumbs up!
great clip mate...very clear and helpful for servicing my 450 Grizzly...
Well done sir, thanks for posting this. I just picked up 2 used 2010 Grizzy 450s and this is exactly what I needed.
Is there a conversion from nueton meters to foot pounds?
Yes, there are a few on Google. Cheers Andy
9:00 Mine is always so tight like that on my 07 450. And I never tighten it that much at all! Roughly 15lb torque. Just a snug past hand tight. Only on one other car in my lifetime, was it always like that.
To the point to where I maybe take it off once a year. And use the other drain plug the rest of the time. Gets a good majority out, especially on ramps.
very good details Thanks for your time and effort to do video.
Extremely helpful! Thank you for posting these videos!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Why are there 2 drain plugs? When I changed my oil, I only took out the plug with the spring. What is the other one for?
Excellent video as all of your videos! Thanks for making them
Great video, but please tell I missed a trick to getting that spring plug back in 😢 been trying to get it started for 45 minutes 😅
I think it's just a skill you develop over time though oddly enough rotating the plug anti- clockwise whilst pushing it in allowa you to feel when the threads line up - the plug will drop slightly as it drops off the thread ramp, you'll feel it too. Then at that point rotate clockwise & continue to push against the spring pressure & it should start to thread in within a few degrees of turning. If not then repeat.
Cheers Andy
@AndyMechanic
Got on the next try, I think the problem was to much oil on my hands and tools 🔧 thanks 😊
You don't have a video on changing the starter clutch bearing on a Grizzly do you?
Can you send me an email - andymechanic@live.co.uk
Thanks mate good work
Looks like the part number on the o-ring is 93210-347A1. Would that be correct?
Thank you so mush
Excellent. Thank you.
My Kodiak is missing the filter screen on the bottom of the case. I have to get a screen for it.
I bought one it didn’t have the spring and there was a little metal not very much but looked to be a chunk of a seal in it. Any ideas and is it worth fixing myself and about how much to fix it?
Might be a stupid comment but what is the case called where the dip stick is? Mine is cracked and need a new one
Carb cleaned, rebuilt, valves adjust, unit looks neat, fuel tank cleaned, all checked but it doesn't start. it backfires badly. Any advice what else check?
Why my grizzly 450 2014 throws to much smoke what happens whit that
Hi Andy..I have a Yamaha YFM45FXV & in my maintainenes it does not recommend removing that back drain plug as you suggested ..that particular drain plug on my ATV is a drain plug for the differential gear box
Hi, that's correct. The final drive (it's not a diff as no differential action) does also require it's oil to be changed on some of the services. Check your Service Schedule & reference the odometer & hour Meter to decide which service needs to be carried out.
Hope this is of help. Cheers Andy
Good Job. Thank you.
So is there a problem with just draining the oil out of the straining bolt?
Thanks
Thanks I have a 07 grizzly 400 I’m thinking Mobil 1 or amsoil what viscosity do you recommend 0/40 or 10/40
10w40 semi will be just fine
Cheers Andy
hi andy, should the oil be checked dead cold or warmed up and sit for 10mins ??
thanks man !!
If at operating temperature then run engine and allow a couple of mins to settle & oil should be at top of cross hatching on dipstick
If engine cold then around 3mm below top of hatching.
Okay
Great video.
You said you now have that filter wrench for the filter... what did you have before?
Oh just big grips - made a real mess.....much easier now with the correct tool.
Cheers Andy
Hey can you send me a link for the washer and the o-rings please?
Is the engine oil and trans oil the same
Yep :-)
Good job but do not pull the dip stick until you get ready to fill with oil. Dirt clods, sand and God knows what else can fall down in the fill hole while working around the machine.
+Thomas Maddux true.
You would want to remove the dipstick to create proper drainage WHILE draining your oil. It creates something similar to a venturi effect if you will. So...no...not true. Remove while draining..replace so nothing falls in then remove while filling(obviously)...
Thomas Maddux , I agree but unscrew it to allow air in.
My manual says 2.4L with filter replacement ?
Possibly, it's only a guide & really depends if any of the old oil is left in the engine - best to check & do final top up with dipstick.
Cheers Andy
@@AndyMechanic thanks for replying Andy, i ended up putting 2.4L in and it wasnt even touching the dipstick. So i chucked a bit more in and its good.
Love your vids mate !
Mr. Andy, I changed the oil on my Kodiak 450 let it sit for a couple of days but now I have smoke on cold start. Do you have any ideas of what it could be?
Daniel Ceja shitty oil
Did you ever figure the issue out?
Hey Andy. Always curious what fellow techs charge for a service like this?
+KingJamesVL parts + 20% and labour charged out at $60 an hour usually.
Andy Mechanic I still think we charge too little for our services. Our knowledge and trade skills are worth way more imo. If only we all got on the same page and set a price for our worth!
I bought a used kodiak 450, same engine...I drained the oil and when I took the filter off no oil came out at all, the filter was clean as if no oil ever hit the filter... any ideas? I took the side cover off and turned the engine by hand and could see that the oil pump is turning... could it ha e been a bad filter maybe?!
+Rich C Golly...that's not good. Maybe the bypass valve is stuck open. I don't have the manual to hand but you best check to see if this is built into the filter or oil pump. Very important!
Andy Mechanic thank you, I'll look into the bypass valve. The local dealer had never heard about that issue before either....I'm hoping it's just a bad filter...do you know of a way to prime the pump and lines if possible?
+Rich C You could disable the ignition coil and just crank over. I think there is an oil pressure check/bleed screw on the head. Make sure you get oil out of that orifice before you start engine.
Andy Mechanic I will try that. Thanks again
Owned by, MTD correct
What is part number for crush washer?
All Polaris machines take fully synthetic oil…
could you give me the part number for the 22mm drain bolt
+Alex T March sure, what year is your grizzly 450?
2014.on the diagram there's 2 bolts on the bottom.one 934014002 and one 14029.trying to figure out the right one.thanks
