Where to put the oil on a scooter?
Put the scooter on the center stand on level ground. Very important the scooter is sitting level on the center stand with the front wheel on the ground. Drain the oil with the 17mm drain plug on the left side of the engine and re-fill it through the dipstick hole. Pour it in slow or it’ll overflow.
How does an oil change work on a Chinese scooter?
The spring sits on the plug and the filter sits on top of the spring with the mesh basket inside the spring. You’ll have to compress the spring to start the drain plug screwing into the engine, but once it does start, tighten it up by hand to make sure it’s not cross-threaded. If it screws in easily, it’s OK.
How often should I change the oil on my scooter?
I’d recommend changing the engine oil at least every 1000 miles, and the transmission oil at least every 2000 miles. Regular oil changes are the easiest and cheapest way to maximize the life of your engine. Scooters take so little oil that it should cost less than $5 to do and once you know how to do it it should take you more than 10-15 minutes.
