\nWe also arranged for flushing oil at the customer’s request.<\/p>\n

\nFirst, we performed a fluid change.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nYou need to remove the engine guard to drain the coolant. It’s rusted and won’t budge\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWe welded it and managed to get through. The rusty water was terrible\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nI think there’s a pipe coming out of the pump that needs to be removed and replaced. Since it’s a hassle to replace the O-ring and remove the engine guard every time, I machined out a stepped drain and welded it in place.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThis should make things easier next time.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nPeace of mind.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAfter draining the engine oil, we also replaced the filter and added flushing oil.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWe ran it a bit and then drained it. I wonder if it actually works\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nLet’s also lubricate the forks and check them.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nWe also cleaned around the butterfly valve.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe filter is in good condition.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nWhile replacing the throttle cable, we also checked and cleaned the electric idle control. This mechanism has its pros and cons\u2026<\/p>\n
