OIL FOR GEAR BOXES

FLASHLIGHTBOY · 09-01-2009, 12:26 AM

HELLO , I have a 150 cc zstar.. and it uses a separate gear box.. it does not run with the engine oil... can anyone tell me the oil tha it takes.. I am sure there is alot of other like it.. thanks .. I think maybe 75 -90 oil..???

A Chinese motor that isn't a unit motor? I've never heard of that, except on a two-stroke.

Or are you describing a GY6-style CVT? That's a scooter motor, and yes, there's gear oil in the back. I used Castrol Syntec 75W90.

Do you have a pic?

Don't see a pic yet...

Try uploading your pics to http://photobucket.com
It's free (and a little slow).

ok lets try this

Nope, that's only telling us where the photos are on your computer.

You can't upload directly to the site; you need to use a third party host (Flickr, Photobucket, etc). Once you've uploaded your pics to that site, you can then link to this one.

Make sense?

FLASHLIGHTBOY · 09-02-2009, 01:28 AM

ok, I ahev it on the photo bucket album.. how do I show it to others?? post the name of the album??

Weldangrind · 09-02-2009, 01:44 AM

Just go to http://photobucket.com, enter your user name and password, and click on My Albums. You should see your photo.

Just hover the mouse over the photo, and you should see four options pop up. Left click once on HTML Code, then right click on HTML code, and then choose Copy.

Go back to China Riders and right click in the message you're typing, and click paste. Done.

All of this is easier with two browser windows open.

this is the 150 cc zstar.. it uses a standard outboard gear box for an automatic trans.. forward neutral reverse

FLASHLIGHTBOY · 09-02-2009, 01:47 AM

THANKS WELDANGRIND.. sorry for spelling your name wrong.. hard to think and spell and figure things out.. but I got it done.. sorry I will find pics of the gear box now..

Weldangrind · 09-02-2009, 02:03 AM

That's definitely a GY6-based CVT. Yes, you need gear oil in the back. There are two plugs; lower for draining and upper for filling.

FLASHLIGHTBOY · 09-02-2009, 02:06 AM

THANKS for the help.. I was not sure.. and it is hard to get some help and understand it from the chinese suppliers.. as they use other stuff.. I guess it shows that I can learn new tricks.. haha

Dude how can you tell that from the picture?

I can just barely see the rear end. You're a star.
