How to Change the Oil in a Suzuki Zillion
Changing the oil in a Suzuki Zillion is a simple task that can be completed in about 30 minutes. Here are the steps involved:
1. Gather your materials. You will need:
* New oil (1.5 quarts)
* Oil filter (part number 16510-38A00)
* Oil drain pan
* Funnel
* Wrench
* Rags
2. Warm up your engine. This will help the oil to drain more easily.
3. Locate the oil drain plug. The oil drain plug is located on the bottom of the engine, near the front.
4. Place the oil drain pan under the oil drain plug.
5. Loosen the oil drain plug. Use the wrench to loosen the oil drain plug. Be careful not to drop the bolt into the oil pan.
6. Allow the oil to drain. Allow the oil to drain completely into the oil pan.
7. Replace the oil drain plug. Once the oil has drained, replace the oil drain plug. Tighten the plug until it is snug.
8. Locate the oil filter. The oil filter is located on the right side of the engine, near the top.
9. Remove the oil filter. Use the wrench to loosen the oil filter. Be careful not to spill any oil.
10. Apply a thin coat of new oil to the gasket of the new oil filter. This will help to ensure a good seal.
11. Screw on the new oil filter. Hand-tighten the oil filter until it is snug. Do not over-tighten the oil filter.
12. Add new oil to the engine. Use the funnel to add new oil to the engine. Add 1.5 quarts of oil.
13. Check the oil level. Use the dipstick to check the oil level. The oil level should be between the "full" and "add" marks on the dipstick.
14. Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. This will circulate the new oil throughout the engine.
15. Check for leaks. Look under the motorcycle for any leaks. If you see any leaks, tighten the oil drain plug or oil filter until the leak stops.
That's it! You have now successfully changed the oil in your Suzuki Zillion.
