DIY Benelli TnT 135 Oil Change

Right on! Just check the oil level often, it's such a tiny amount in this bike and change it often as the little thumper works damn hard at speed. Thanks for the support brother. Eric

Thank you, if I can help.ylur.ownership experience, please let.me know. Eric

[@RS-nl2lp]

You installed the new oil filter without removing the old o-ring seal that was stuck in the oil inlet stud. This is a mistake, and that’s why the spring was so tight because you have two seals on top of each other. If you use the OEM filter that does not have an integrated rubber seal, then of cause you keep the o-ring in place, acting as a reusable seal for the filter.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

You are correct. Truth be said, it worked both ways. When I shot this video, there was no service manual available. So everything was a guess based on my experience. Again,both ways will work.

[@RS-nl2lp]

Yes It probably won’t hurt anything. And probably it’ll still seal. Just remove it next time. BTW I investigated T1/T2 timing marks. T2 is TDC, use this for valve clearance adjustment. T1 is in fact BDC. Don’t use this mark for anything.

[@jtom342]

So I assume if using K&N you can take the rubber seal off the filter and just use the oring that is in the machine?

[@supersteech]

@@jtom342 That´s how I did it, hope it works. No problems so far...

[@RS-nl2lp]

No, o-rings inside the engine oil has a limited lifespan. Also the hi-flo and K&N filters are designed to seal with the pre installed seal, so don’t do that. Remove the o-ring if using hi-flo or K&N.

[@ΑργύρηςΦλώρος-τ5ζ]

Thank you for the fantastic job you are doing there. I need to ask because i am a new TNT 125 (Europe -Greece) I did 10km and return home to change the oil and filter with MOTUL oil and k&N 112 filter. I left the engine to dry completely and install 1000 ml of the new oil (from the oil bottle indicator). Now the oil it at the high level with the engine stop and i can barely see oil when the engine is running. I am asking because when you change oil and filter after 10km ride the manual point that you should put 1100ml back in. I just put 1000 and it's full and i did a test ride also. Now when the ENGINE IS RUNNING the side glass level is in the middle and when stoped is full. Is this normal ???

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

It depends if you thoroughly warmed up the bike before the oil change. The extra 100 ml is for the oil cooler. If you didn't change the oil while is hot the valves on the oil cooler won't open and flush out the old oil.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

Let me know if that makes sense.

[@ronnelyap482]

Sir where did you get the windshield? It looks cool! I also have the same bike and your videos helps me alot on how i Change the oil since until now the dealer is still looking for a shop that could handle my warranty service.

Just subscribed. Great instructions. I do have a question? I bought a tnt 135 2019 private party. All was good but now it grands when i try to start it. I thought it was the start itself but was told it may not be that. I have a new battery. Any suggestion you could help me with? I will pay for your time thank you.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

This is a tough one for me to guess at. I would first look at the starter. It sounds like the cog on the starter has chipped some teeth. Rome it and take a look. No need to pay me for anything. :)

[@RoRo-bg1qe]

@KrakensGarageandAdventures Thank you for getting back to me. So I took it apart and figured it out. It was the (starter clutch) the springs that hold the bearings, I think that's what you call it. Broke, so that was what was making the grinding noise. It's hard for me to find legit parts to replace it, so I just bought so longer and tougher springs from like Wal-Mart. Put it back together with new oil and started right up 🙌

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

@@RoRo-bg1qe I have the repair manual and parts manual on Dropbox if you need it.

[@TheJumpRopeAddict]

You said 10w 50 but the oil says 15w 50 is that right? I know manual says 10w 40 and you explained using thicker oil to help with the valve noise just checking before I order it’s 15w50 you used? Have you had any issues and is it okay for me in NY or should I stick with a thinner oil since it gets cold here

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

Good catch, yes I stated the wrong weight but 15w 50 definitely helps quiet down the valves. I hope it helps. If you store it outside, go with the thinner oil, otherwise go with the thicker.

[@bruceleelee3823]

Just wondering you had stated that you used 10W40 but the bottle that you are pouring says 15W50 I asking this because I just recently done a oil change with mobile 10W40 and really don't want to tare my bike up before I get to enjoy it for longevity

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

JD depending on the temp you live in should dictate which viscosity. In Virginia early spring i chose a bit thicker oil 15w50 for the cool spring time. And ill change it again 10w40 soon when it gets hot. Honestly either will fine. The ticker oil quiets down the noisy valves on the bike a bit. Fire away if you have any troubles. Eric

Hey I really like your videos and have a green benelli as well. I have had only one issue from when I got my bike and that is my oil cooler keeps leaking from the bolt side by the header. I replaced it the sealant washers with ones from auto zone they leaked and got ones from benelli and they leaked as well. I believe I'm tightening too much and wanted to know if there is a torque setting for that bolt?? Or if you have some advice that can help me. Sorry for the long comment trying to ask a simple question.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

Is your bike still under warranty? If so, take it to the dealer asap. If not and you have replaced the sealant washers, my only other guess would be the bolt may need replaced. As for the torque settings for that bolt, you can download the service manual here and it should have the torque settings for your entire bike. www.dropbox.com/s/j53yc6dukca60g5/Benelli%20TNT%20135cc%20Official%20Full%20Service%20Manual%20%282021%29%20.pdf?dl=0

[@jamesg9005]

@@KrakensGarageandAdventures sooo update on that situation is it's not under warranty any longer but I ended up finding out that there was a small leak from the oil cooler itself somewhere above the bolt side by the exhaust which made it seem like the washers were being overtightened so I got a new oil cooler from the factory and swapped them out. Now she's solid and leak free... Thank you still for being so informative on everything you do

Isn't the OE filter O-ring supposed to come off if you use a new filter with an installed O-ring?

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

It is and good eye catching that. That said, I've run it both ways to test and it works either way. Leaving the 0-ring makes a super tight fit to get it seated. So I cannot recommend using it.

[@stancepk8406]

Are you supposed to leave that o ring inside of the oil filter housing? Its where the filter gets pushed into. Small finger sized o ring

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

Good question that many have commented on. I personally think you're fine either way. You do have to muscle it on with the o-ring left on vs easy slide on without. I've tried both ways and the filter did its job. Good luck. Eric

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

Do not put water in anything. It's an air cooled bike. To reset the check engine light switch the key off and on 5 times quickly. Good luck.

[@DoRC]

You really should have taken the o-ring off of the filter Mount inside the engine before putting the k&n filter on. Since the k&n filter has its own seal the o-ring isn't necessary and can actually space the filter out too far.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

Thanks for watching and commenting. I based that decision on what I was told by Steady Garage where I purchased the items. Eric

[@DoRC]

@@KrakensGarageandAdventures they told you to leave the o-ring? I could be wrong.

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

@@DoRC I did a video on adjusting the valves on this bike. The shop manual, my dealer and the FB TnT group combined couldn't answer with conviction what timing mark to use to set the exhaust valves. Point is there's zero info that's solid out there to properly maintain your bike so many of us have to just wing it. Steady Garage answered the oil filter question and may be wrong as well but it's the factory that needs to publish the correct info. I'm just doing my best to help entry level rider with some basic maintenance. Or I'm trying... ;)

[@DoRC]

@@KrakensGarageandAdventures understood. In general you're doing a very good job :-) my experience as a professional mechanic tells me that if the new filter comes with a built-in seal then the o-ring becomes redundant but it most likely isn't going to hurt anything. As far as setting the valves you really don't need to pay attention to the timing marks. As long as the lobe of the cam is pointing away from the rocker you're good to go (at least that's how I was taught and how I've done it on hundreds of vehicles over the 20 years I've been turning wrenches). There's a pretty decent part of the rotation of the cam where there is zero lift so it's effective to just do that by eye. Really enjoying the videos keep them up!

You failed to mention removing the rubber grommet from the K&N filter or removing the o-ring from the tube the filter slides on, as you don't want to use both, as you did. The OEM filter doesn't have a rubber grommet, because the o-ring remains on the shaft.

[@leehendrickson482]

@@KrakensGarageandAdventures Maybe I'm wrong, but I think we should not force the filter to seat. The spring seats the filter to OEM o-ring and allows the filter to unseat and bypass in the event of a clogged filter. I wish we had more options for a better fitted filter as the OEM filter looks really cheaply made. Someone on another vid took the rubber sealing flange on the oil filter and turned it over. I guess it is camfered on the inside and allows for a better fit.

Sorry for the long comment trying to ask a simple question.

Is your bike still under warranty? If so, take it to the dealer asap. If not and you have replaced the sealant washers, my only other guess would be the bolt may need replaced. As for the torque settings for that bolt, you can download the service manual here and it should have the torque settings for your entire bike. www.dropbox.com/s/j53yc6dukca60g5/Benelli%20TNT%20135cc%20Official%20Full%20Service%20Manual%20%282021%29%20.pdf?dl=0
