I would start it and let it run for a couple of minutes.. then drain it... cleans thinks out.. but use the oil for your area and weather conditions ... heavy in the warm weather and little lighter in cold weather.. sythetics for wet clutches if you want to use it,,, but oil is cheap.. so change often for better preformance and will last longer,,
Great details. 1/2 to 3/4? Wow that dude in the video is waaaay off if that's the case. I believe another dealer (Killer Motorsports if I remember correctly) said even as much as 1.5 quart. I'm really glad you chimed in here. I probably would've dumped too much in before checking. Thanks again for everyone's input. It's supposed to arrive tomorrow. Not bad for ordering just last Thursday! I'll prob. start another thread when the Rhino has landed
