stevojumps Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Hi all , just wondering how often or after how many hours do you change your engine oil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krss144 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Well my two cars and truck I change every 3,000 miles. The John Deere I change it ever spring. I know people with 4 stroke sleds that only change it once a year (mainly because its a 3 hour tear down hassle) My buddy only changes his wifes 4 stroke quad once every other year. My two sleds dont have to change oil cause it a 2 stroke. I hope that covers it...??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh-eman Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 When I ran Gearsaver I changed my oil after about 3 or 4 trips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiftdT4R Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Once every other year, but if I put probably only put 10~15 hours a year on my bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAICK Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 i change mine after every dune trip or once a month, but i got a 1000 gallons of oil three feet from my work bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberneck Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I also change mine after every dune trip. I like to inspect the old oil. It gives you an idea of clutch condition and how well everything is holding up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
