Re: Change Your Oil

I love this site.

I ran into the same issue as Stretch was decribing after changing my oil lastnight in preparation for my road trip, which I thought will be cancelled.

Turns out, i had a kinked clutch cable. After removing the tie, clutch felt good, gaining speed when fully opening the throttle was as it should.

Another issue I ran into and wish to share is the darn plug is EASY to strip. I learned this during the process. So DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!!! I bought a 1/2 universal plug from Advanced Auto Parts and was able to plug it. Changed the oil again, which I am glad I did as there was a lot of metal shavings that came out from my plug error. Took her for a test ride and all appear intact.

Thanks to you guys and this site.
