GY6: Oil Change Tutorial

[@leroijr407]

Ps. People please dont use the impact to put the filter plug back on. It has a rubber o-ring on the plug. Tighten it hand tight and then about a 1/4 turn. You damage that o-ring guys, you got a leak. Not to mention its aluminum.... You strip it, you just inherited a problem. Be easy with that plug and the drain plug. Remember, o-ring and aluminum.

[@ethanloughlin9052]

I almost flinched when he tightened it

[@darkisato8346]

Using a glass cake pan. Ur wife will get pissed

[@rjuarez4913]

Never , ever , use an impact on any drain plug !!!! Especially those type with the large out integrated washer. They will crack and you will strip drain bolt engine threads. Always wrench tighten with care , any drain bolt. Easy does it.

[@boomstickjezus9665]

Calm down, You can use an impact drill on any bolt just don't overdo it. Any professional should know what they are doing.

[@bobbylauro3219]

Thank you for reassuring me that I can change my oil on my own for the first time thank you so much

[@DarylSkinner]

Did you put clean Oil in it looks dirty what you put back into your bike

[@baccaratpro6447]

Great video Joey! Very informative! Keep up the good work!

[@Rammstein0963.]

Much obliged man, I was looking on the wrong side of the bike, trying to take off the filter... You saved me a lot of work and potential maintenance fees at a shop...weird that the drain isn't on the bottom like a car tho...

[@badmonkey2222]

I actually didn't know about the drain plug by the transmission I just took out the nut with the filter on the bottom and drained it like that. I hope I didn't screw something up I wouldn't think so?

[@Rammstein0963.]

Doubt you did, as long as you don't overfill on the other end and screw it back on tight you should be good.

[@badmonkey2222]

@@Rammstein0963. I just put it back in after draining it and then put 30 oz as the owners manual says and use 15 -40 regular or 5-40 synthetic and I just split the difference and use 10-40 Mobil 1 synthetic motorcycle racing oil. I've got a 2023 wolf ex150 sport freaking love it.

[@pongothecrownvic474]

Thank you I’m glad watched this video I was about to do oil change with 650ml, going to go to autozone now

[@Godspeed1844]

[@hottekiessling7035]

Good video brother, spotted the G on the wall!

[@ElProfeMoto]

[@RannieriAmaro]

I'm on 2024 and it helped me a lot thanks 🙏🏻👍🏻

[@ahmedkaram2470]

Good jooooob

[@garyb757]

Informative, thanks for sharing

[@blurrble5]

Great video thanks!

[@JoeysGarage]

Thanks!! Thank you for watching and the kind words

[@blackrob3058]

I remove the dipstick while draining the oil. Also tilt the bike a little.

[@Vwbrayden]

Do you need the impact to untighten the drain plug , I’m trying with a socket wrench 17mm and I cannot get it off no matter how hard I turn

[@Vwbrayden]

Figured it out

[@SuperHighGuyMitch]

Thanks Joey!

[@miggymikke]

Thank you so much Awesome vid

[@JT-nk5gl]

how many ml for a 50cc?

[@andybritton7921]

Thank you sir

[@RexFixx]

I was like ftw a dollar for oil then looked up its made on 2016

[@felixleon1431]

nice video i have a question what does the black hose on the muffler do?

[@ElProfeMoto]

Hey there. What should the oil quantity be in a 50cc scooter? thanks.

[@badmonkey2222]

25-30 ounces a little more than three-quarters of a quart it has the ounces measured on the outside of the oil container.

[@chronoboat11]

Isn't there a little steel ball that regulates oil pressure that comes out when you remove that spring????

[@King88_8]

Some have, most don't

[@badmonkey2222]

Dang I didn't know about the other drain plug I just drained it from the one where the screen is on the bottom, will that mess anything up on?

[@Joeilliano]

I just got my 150 cc scooter. Can I use regular 10w30 car engine oil on the scooter?

[@thgsthry2963]

Very Much Appreciated.....Thank You I may actually have a chance of maintaining my own bike this time around......Of course I subscribed' lolol

[@_james4766]

Question why do you have to let the gear oil drain a bit before you put the fill bolt back in ?

[@jodyholcomb3738]

I got a 2004 Yamaha vino scooter 125 can you please tell me what kind of gear oil to use in it. If you can help me I've ask lots they said don't no so can you tell me

[@stevepollack7571]

Can this gear oil be used in place of the 85w90 synthetic that xpro told me to use for my Bali 150cc? I can't find 85w90 synthetic oil anywhere not sure they even make it

[@turkinsdogma7675]

Appreciate the how to!

[@Sidg2]

Does all these 3 oils have almost same viscosities and can be interchangeable as a gear oil in transmission of 110cc gearless scooters. SAE 10W30 engine oil , API GL-4 SAE 80W-90 gear oil and GL-4 SAE 90 grade gear oil.

[@holmiumh]

10W30 is clearly unsuitable. The other two will be fine.

[@otoji]

I've got a question idk if you touched upon. But I've got a spark plug issue so I've gotta rethread the hole or replace the head. If I were to remove and replace the head do I need to drain the engine or is okay to leave alone? (Sorry if it's a dumb question)

[@JoeysGarage]

Me personally, I would drain the engine after replacing the head. That way u could be sure no particles dropped in.

[@muradhaque6633]

Hey Joey, Hope you are doing well. First of all thank you very much for your all videos. Its all good. I have a 150 cc scooter from Znen. The model is T9. It has a GY7 engine. Could you please tell me which engine oil grade will be nice for it? Now I am using 10W30 from GULF which is full synthetic. But before i used 20W40 semi synthetic from Castrol after the braking period as company mentioned it earlier. But I was not getting the engine smooth and thats why i changed my mind and now i am feeling the engine is running smooth by using 10W30 ! My question is - Am I doing anything wrong over here by changing the engine oil grade ?

[@pongothecrownvic474]

I’m in Las Vegas NV, USA the moped shop I go to tell me use regular oil not synthetic

[@bepositive14344]

hello sir. Can i use gasoline engine oil like 10w30 to my scooter with separate transmission?. currently im using 10w30 jaso-mb with api sn. thank you.

[@anthonyrizzo5973]

Is that an 02 sensor in your exhaust?

[@TheBR911]

what kind of oil have you used in your moped engine?? Fully synthetic or Mineral?

[@larrymiller6285]

Ok you explained the how's and the why's but you never said what type of gear oil ,or motor oil ,I see you use mobile and rotella but what weights

[@ANDYMCNET]

larry miller I only watched this video as to find out the weight and no info 😞 tut tut

[@JoeysGarage]

Mobil One, 75W-90 for gears. 5W-20 for engine. I apologize for the delayed comment.

[@matowixunplugged7927]

Joey's Garage do u use motorcycle oil or just car oil for the engine oil ?

[@ahmedkaram2470]

What kind of bouget can I use for 150cc Hawa scooter?? thanks

[@LukeMahan-xr4xx]

Great vid thanks

[@mkingwell45]

hi ya.. ive had an issue thats new to me. i had oil fuel mix poring out of the vavle cover breather which also filled up the air box. do you think its a new carb or petcock

[@tpach89]

Dude, did you know a squirrel was on your lip during the whole video??

[@josetrigueiro5978]

That's because he knows a squirrel like that can give much pleasure to a woman.

[@kricklasalty-dg2ri]

Whats a kilometer? I live in the United States!

[@johnboy6840]

I have a 2020 Icebear mojo magic 150cc gy6 motor, I've changed the oil a few time but have only used the plug that has the scream is that okay

[@ronturner1345]

Hey joey Question I have a Tao Tao scooter The only way I can start it Is by spraying starter fluid in the carburetor Why is that?

[@wesleywebb1058]

Why is that one pipe running into muffler? Is it more exhaust from engine

[@charlieoscar09]

Joey does the Gy6 have a beebee ball above the filter ? Just watched another video guy says dont lose the beebee ball as this supplies oil to the head thanks

[@JoeysGarage]

+charlieoscar09 No Bb ball approve the filter. Just the spring, filter, then cap that is tightened on

[@charlieoscar09]

Thanks Joey

[@matari7183]

My 2016 TaoTao has 600km and since day one boggs on take off and then eventually the gas kicks in. Any thoughts? thank you

[@JoeysGarage]

+Matari 7 Carbs needs tuning. Sounds to be running rich

[@flavanationJ]

what about taotao

[@kevinstearns4198]

impact wrench???????

[@TheShawna1]

Yep Impact wrench is a No No you stretch your thread a little each time until you pull them out! it's only cheap aluminum against the steel cap Thread.jim

[@downlowgo_401]

Omg impact in the drain plug.. wtf man … this has been out for 7 years so I can’t imagine the amount of stripped plugs out there now. Also the dip stick should be out of the bike when you drain it

[@julesblakemore7228]

How much oil shud I put in my 50cc jonway madness scooter

[@King88_8]

Before draining check level on dipstick. Adjust if needed. Drain and measure. Add that amount. Check on dipstick

[@jeffdiedrick9462]

You shouldn't spray carburetor cleaner on any of your rubber seals it dry rots them read the can

[@powertool4uau]

GREAT VID AAA+++++++++++

[@JoeysGarage]

Thank you.

[@shannonmcdonough8871]

Can I put castrol 4t motorcycle oil for 4 stroke motorcycles it says? Am I gone or should I go 10w 40??

[@King88_8]

Use normal motor oil. Don't need motorcycle oil on auto scooter because there is no clutch being lubed.

[@robbiecunningham22]

Why don't you tell us the grade of engine oil?

[@rosegold-beats]

10w40

[@King88_8]

Standard car oil. 10W30 or 10w40

[@lightofmylife1616]

Hey once my moped gets to around 12 mph, it jerks kind of. Then it takes like 15 seconds to reach top speed (30mph). What do you think could be the problem of this acceleration issue?

[@OutdoorsIQ]

Jesus IS LORD you may need to clean the carbs, best to take it to a scooter mechanic. Shouldn’t be a difficult fix.

[@RexFixx]

They can be valves or carb or compression

[@ivanurban2383]

Its either carb or worn out cvt belt

[@paulocometti4317]

why removing oil from both sides?

[@wesleywebb1058]

Wondering myself

[@somebloke5565]

Depending on who you listen to, which GY6 Buggy/ scooter video you watch, dipstick is either IN or OUT to check level, or they say fill to manual ( for which none exists that does say 'fill ot mark') and I still don't know!

[@davidk1579]

All other eng. that I have had with dip sticks like this I was always told out was the proper way, that was from a dealer for riding lawn mowers.. I would think they would know..

[@marymanning2002]

my scooter says use 15-40 the only thing I can find is for diesel engines will it work on my scooter

[@hgallloway1265]

mary manning no

[@gregatron4528]

Yes it will work, the shell rotella bottle says something like "and also gas engines". These scooters get awful hot. Diesels get this way too so they need something better than just plain car oil.

[@robbiecunningham22]

I can't believe this guy talks for 14min and never states the grade of engine oil.

[@stevethomas6994]

10w-40 is fine. Ive been using it since day one. Never an issue.

[@tonyholmes4753]

My scooter says use 15w 40 as well and that’s diesel oil

[@johnboy6840]

What is the CVT?

[@stevensedlis3901]

continuous variable transmission.

[@naciremasti]

ive gotta gy6 150, but its ina trailmaster 150 xrx buggy, my engine doesnt look like yours; what's different,?

[@jasonjulian1]

The diameter of the piston and cylinder bore. About all.

[@chrismcclinton646]

Where did you get your pipe from dude?

[@JoeysGarage]

+Chris Mcclinton Super cheap off of aliexpress. It's basically a straight pipe with that squarish end part to Mae it appear legal. No baffles or anything. I love the sound. m.aliexpress.com/s/item/32815844530.html?spm=a2g0n.search-cache.0.0.4c13fe72P36yPP

[@chrismcclinton646]

Joey's Garage nice one but does it not take a while to come?

[@JoeysGarage]

+Chris Mcclinton Yeah. It took some time to arrive.

[@hgallloway1265]

Should of changed the oil filter and the spring, well I would of personally mate

[@OutdoorsIQ]

Harry Galloway I don’t think it matters too much with this one mate, it’s just a wire mesh filter.

[@RS-pd1wx]

50cc 80w90 ml? 🇹🇷

[@gustavorodriguez412]

It's called an oil strainer.

[@TheBypasser]

Lol 99% of people just think the mesh filter holder is the drain plug :)

[@crawfordoverton3299]

Question why not drain oil by the side with filter screen?

[@raulaguero1492]

The drain hole is at an inferior level. The upper hole is at the full level.

[@pjfrog10]

Should you warm up the engine before changing the oil?

[@richb5765]

No

[@King88_8]

Generally on most vehicles you do so that OIL WARMS UP and flows out easier, so yes you can. Watch out on scooters that you don't get burnt

[@pjfrog10]

King I’m with you. Thanks.

[@rick6084]

what kinda mechanic are you man?! change the engine oil once A YEAR?! i think it might be better to do it every 500 -1000 miles

[@Natethanastysnake666]

Impact on a drain plug? Nah

[@stevethomas6994]

Some bad advice on filling the gearbox. You dont fill it till it drains out. You fill it with about 2-3 oz of gear oil. You can use 80/90 or 75/90. Either will work. Never overfill the gearbox.

[@MidwestMotoRider]

Super easy. Now to replace that pesky brake fluid! :) ...o='o

[@JoeysGarage]

+MidwestMotoRider Super easy

[@kc7byd54]

gy-6 scooter clutch inspection

[@GY6SCOOTERCHAT]

Lost credibility when you started using the impact on the drain plugs. You’re going to strip the threads on the cheap Chinese metal

[@1966johnnywayne]

Power tools to remove and install an oil drain plug...THAT'S JUST WRONG! And then there is the matter of using carb cleaner on the filter rubber/nitrile seals...again WRONG!

[@keithtaylor1198]

This guy is no mechanic… 1st those are clearly Case Bolts… 2Nd NEVER USE ANY TYPE OF CORDLESS GUN ON A OIL PLUG…

[@superspecialty5169]

A waste of time promoting yourself… it’s only about the subject matter! 🙄🤨

[@lpz3665]

Never use an impact on a drain plug ....NEVER. !
