Craftsman T110 Lawn Mower Oil Change

In this video I'm changing the oil on a Craftsman T110 Lawn Mower

[@Jim-ie6uf]

Hi Hector. I have one of the oil suction pumps. It gets all but 2-4 oz. I used Castrol 5 30 synthetic on my first change 3 weeks ago.

[@NoneMechanic101]

Great information. I'm going to pin your comment. Thank you. I appreciate it!

[@jimmyfrombrooklyn8550]

Just got a T110, never had to deal with grass before but life’s changed! Thanks so much for posting your video, great information!

[@NoneMechanic101]

You’re so very welcome. I think I’m going on 4 years with it.

Mine didn’t come with the oil drain adapter, so I used a water bottle. I cut the top and back off then cut it in half then trimmed till it fit. Worked perfectly!! I also rolled the left side (opposite of plug) on 2 2x4’s so gravity would do the work.

[@NoneMechanic101]

Great. Thank You

[@harrydennis8149]

Great! Thank you for helping me so I don't have to read the info on line. What a crazy place the oil plug! My old Craftsman simply had a spout at the bottom that you turned on and off. Easy and quick. The engineer for this must have gone to a school in Iceland......Best Regards from an ole coot (80 summers) who enjoys riding his "tractor" to mow his five acres.....

[@NoneMechanic101]

Thank you for watching. I hope I was able to make it easier for those who are going to do a oil change on this Lawnmower👊

[@angelozicarelli541]

Wow you can do five acres with this thing? We have 1.3 acres and I was thinking about selling this current model we have, craftsman t 110 and getting maybe a craftsman t 240 for better performance.

[@franklinwhitt7782]

Hey, thanks for helping. Just changed the oil for the first time ever with your video. Many thanks. Cheers! 🍻

[@NoneMechanic101]

Glad it helped. Cheers👍

[@exffljockholder]

Good video. Better than the instruction manual. This also works for the T100. The plastic chute they give you is a pain to use. You can also cut up a milk jug. The design of the oil plug prevents a socket from being used which would be optimal. 12mm or 7/16 wrench will do fine.

[@NoneMechanic101]

Thank you. I appreciate it!

[@justmike57]

Great job on less mess. For the Lawn Tractors without filters you should be watching how many hours you put on the tractor for the next oil change. Might be in your manule.

[@NoneMechanic101]

I did notice that. I thought it had filter. I will be watching the hours I put into. Thank you

[@VXSkate1]

Oil changed. Thanks, Hector!

[@bitethedevil]

Changed mine for the first time. I didn't have too much trouble, I didn't remove the harness holder but it's still a pain where the drain plug is. Lots of 1/4 turns before it comes out and like yours, oil got on the frame. I used some brake cleaner and rags afterwards to clean the oil off the frame and also in my drip pan, wiped clean with shop papertowles.

[@NoneMechanic101]

Great👍

[@johnpaulpascasio5756]

You're the man! Good video

[@Drifter5.7]

My Johnny Deere has an extension tube to drain it into a bucket..I wonder if you can do that to your Sears?

[@NoneMechanic101]

I probably give it try.

[@jamesT8681]

I have the Craftsman T140 46” made very similar to the 110. The steering rod seems to block me getting to the oil plug. I thought about disconnecting it. Also how do you clean the top cutting deck and around the motor?

[@NoneMechanic101]

The way I cleaned it. I jack it up and washed it with the water hose.

[@thenov1944]

Pressure Washer , Electric or gas ! Handy to have for washing most anything !

[@jamesT8681]

Thank you!

[@RRReviews10X]

Is there an air filter? Also, how often should one change the oil? Yearly or every 2 years? I live in Upstate New York, so I only really mow from April - October

[@NoneMechanic101]

I myself live in New York. I like changing the oil yearly.

[@SkyCloudSilence]

Change oil every ten mowing hours.

[@NoneMechanic101]

@@SkyCloudSilence Thank you

[@tykellerman6384]

It’s almost like the head engineer came buy and said how are you going to change the oil… the young student says what oil change😂😂🤔

[@NoneMechanic101]

🤦‍♂️

[@billbartek8873]

The steering rod is in the way of me getting to the drain plug even though I turned my front wheels as far as they would go like you did.What do you do now?

[@NoneMechanic101]

The way I did it was the way it work for me. I don't know how to direct you on how to.

[@billbartek8873]

Well,I did it like you did on the video and I dont know how you got that wrench in there.I turned the wheels as far as I could and that rod is still right over the drain plug.Might be better if I do what this other guy did.Buy a oil suction pump.Would it care if I leave a few ounces in there if I go to the synthetic oil other than the oil it came with.@@NoneMechanic101

[@NeoStrikevoiceover]

Reading online from Craftsman, states 10W-30, but you're using 5W-30. is 5W-30 better or an improvement to 10W-30? Full synthetic really a better way to go and should it state "small engine oil" or "for lawn mowers etc" on it as well... or full synthetic motor oil meant for car sufficient?

[@NoneMechanic101]

I believe that before I did the oil change. I read from the owners manual.

[@ManicMechanic007]

That plastic drain extension piece does not help much. I agree, the design is lousy, but you did very well in a bad situation.

[@NoneMechanic101]

ManicMechanic007, I think Craftsman should had put the drain plug in the bottom.

[@michaelbonetti]

Where is the oil filter on the t110? Cannot find it. Looks like it's near the carburetor on most videos ??

[@NoneMechanic101]

Doesn't have a oil filter.

[@joyceveiga8789]

[@BillChunk]

So where's the oil filter replacement. I think I saw it behind the wiring harness. Do you replace those on this model? They come with the kit. Thoughts?

So any 5w30 oil from an auto parts store will do?

It's best to use the recommended oil. I used the oil from the auto parts store.

@@NoneMechanic101 thanks. I couldn’t find the recommended oil in the owners manual for my t100.

[@Iseekoutthetruth]

I have never owned a Lawn Mower. I would have used a socket and impact to spin it out faster.

I glad I got this one because they charge about 45.00 dollars to cut the grass.

If your has a filter it take between 46-48 oz, with out a filter it takes between 42-44 oz.

Could you send me a picture of what the oil name is
