    this may be a really stupid question and im pretty sure i already know the answer, im just checking to make sure lol...the yz450s don't have separate reservoirs for engine oil and trans/gear oil do they? I've been told they dont but I have a leak from my countershaft seal that I will be replacing soon and the oil was really thick kinda looked like gear oil

      They actually share the same oil!

    Hello Folks! What is the interval of gearbox oil change in YZ 450? (please in liters of burned fuel or mth)

    • @elcucuygarage
      @elcucuygarage 4 роки тому +5

      The YZ uses a shared sump, meaning the engine oil and transmission are in fact one in the same. When you drain the engine oil you're also draining the transmission oil, they are not separate on this bike.

    Hello I got a question please, my bike shows oil level only if the bike is warm, if the bike is cold the glass of oil level is empty, is that okay? Or does it mean I should add more oil ? Thank you

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  4 роки тому +1

      When your bike is level and at not running, you should be able to see your oil level. So yes, your oil could be low. I would suggest draining out your old oil and putting new oil in and the amount you service manual calls for.

    Has anyone ever had a problem with having gas in the oil I’ve been looking but can’t find anyone with the problem on a Yamaha and I need to know what to do. Please respond if you have any advice.

    So it should be at the low line? As shown on this video?

      Oil level should be in the upper part of the sight glass, above the low oil line when the bike is level.

    After changing the oil on my 2018 YZ450FX, the oil window looked good. I started the bike, and checked the pressure nut also. While it was running I looked at the oil window again, and noticed it there was almost nothing showing in the window. Is that normal since it showed full of oil while the bike is off? Thanks for your help.

    • @FranksGarage
      @FranksGarage 3 роки тому +2

      Yes the oil is supposed to be sucked up by the oil system and that should indicate that your oil pressure is operating. Concerns would be if the oil didn't disappear when the bike started!

    @FleXyz450 6 років тому +2

    Actually the stock cover has a oil check bolt on the side cover and you level the bike and fill till the oil begins to drip out the oil check bolt. About 800ml is what’s needed to fill it to the needed level. At least that’s how it is on a ‘17 YZ450FH model.
