oil change

[HurtLocker21]

Ok so I'm doing an oil change on my 12 nytro. I have the whole sled stripped down, I know how to drain the oil and remove the filter. I can't seem to find the "5mm Allen bolt" on the bottom of the motor to drain that also. Is it the bottom bolt in the picture?

look closely on the side that the filters mounts to there is a very small triangle that indicates which bolt is the drain bolt

Being its been almost a year since I did a oil change don't go off this with 100% certainty but I believe looking at the pic its the one under the oil pressure sensor. Can see a copper compression washer in the pic or at least it sure looks like it.

remove 5 mm allen key indicated by the triangle and you should see a copper wash has well she hold about 3.2-3.4 l

it is the bolt with the copper washer to the clutch side of the filter. In this picture it is the bolt on the bottom of the picture.

Pour 3L in and leave it. Being full or over full will make a mess in your air box. I dump 3L in mine and it's good to go.

Made that mistake last year.

Same here!

3.4 lt to do a change on mine. Brings it right up to the full mark.

Thanks everyone. Also NS FX NYTRO, when you say 3L you mean 3 quarts?

Do you mean 3 quarts?

Liters.

Thanks everyone. Also NS FX NYTRO, when you say 3L you mean 3 quarts?

 

[Mills]

sorry yes I mean 3.7 quarts or 1L.

 

[NS FX NYTRO]

3.7 quarts Is 3.5L

You can put however much you want in your sled, but I know with a filter change I dumped 3L in my nytro and it brings it up close to full, but not full. From my experience and from reading a lot on here about other people's experiences, this is right where you want your oil level to avoid a mess in your air box
