View Full Version : Adding oil



03-21-2002, 03:46 PM
I've had one heck of a time adding oil to my quad everytime I change it. So, I tipped the quad over 1/2 way to the right side and BAMMM......the oil dumped right in the tank. Worked pretty slick! Are there any other trick ways to add oil?:D

Why don't you just use a funnel??
If you don't have one. Just roll a paper plate up to make it into a funnel and use that....

Thanks for the "tip":p

The reason I don't use a funnel is because it is virtually useless. There is a little plate in the opening of the dipstick hole that restricts the oil going in too fast. I tried a funnel but I lost about a 1/2 qt. of oil in the process. This way, I can control the flow of oil going into the hole. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Just pour the oil into the funnel slower.
