Re: oil change questions

I can't get the filter at the local auto parts store. so, online is my option-both filters were around $7 each. the Lucas oil was $7.50/qt. so, the overall price is under $20 to change it...plus my time...but that is the fun part! be safe!

Re: oil change questions

I got myself a Yamalube 4-troke motor oil, semi synthetic. I need to pour in some, to get the level on full. Is it ok to mix the old oil inside with this one? Old one is 15-50 SAE... Or 10-40, the mechanic couldn't tell!!! He sells only this two?
Thank you!

Re: oil change questions

Thx Blaine! I'm going to buy some 'easytofill' oil, clean the 'blood' from the chest of my gz and check how he bleeds... Needless to say that he's becoming a man...
