YFZ450R CHANGING COOLANT
มุมมอง 58K8 ปีที่แล้ว
flushed coolant system and changed to engine ice on my 09 yfz450r. Dont forget when you put everything back together pour some distilled water to flush the system. While pouring the water make sure the water pump bolt is unscrewed.
Should I start my quad before I flush the coolant? Also do I need to take out the radiator if I switch coolants?
Not required to start to drain coolant. I took it out only to get to reservoir tank and empty it
Don't you have to take the upper bolt to do the air bleedout?
Nope I opened the radiator cap and started the quad. You'll see all the airbubbles coming out as it warms up and runs the coolant throughout the system
@@pavelsandul631 alright thanks!
How much does coolent last before you add it again ?
After its wide open ....just pour 1 gal distilled water thru. Bolt up an use Yamaha coolant i recommend highly. It will keep that system happy! Hope ur running a good semi-syn 10w40 oil w/ k&n or Yamaha or twin air oil filters.
I just use the Yamaha oil with oem filter and change it every 4-6 hours …. I run Engine ice coolant tho. Been thinking bout running synthetic but I figured since I change it so often prob don’t matter as much 🤷🏻♂️
how do i take off the sensory plug ??
There should be tabs on the sensor
So I need to start it up when I pore it in
Yes you have to run it to get all the air out
Does it take just one container of it or more
Just one will be fine
@@pavelsandul631 alrighty thanks
Do I have to fill up the reservoir after u empty it ?
Christian LaRoda yea up to the full line
How much coolant does it take, I'm switching my coolant to Engine ice? Also what year is your YFZ9
La vida del Ranchero it took like 1 quart. Mine was 2009
@@pavelsandul631 tha ks forbthe reply mine so basically, drain the old put distilled water run it until all the water comes out and fill it with Engine ice?
La vida del Ranchero yep and run it with the cap open so all air comes out and keeping topping it off until no bubbles are shown
@@pavelsandul631 Thanks again dude! 🤘
What was the purpose of removing the radiator? Wouldn't essentially filling with distilled, running and doing that a few times perform the same task?
videoman223 Maybe but I took it off and got all of the antifreeze out by tilting the radiator on its side. Than poured distilled water and got all the water out the same way
videoman223 it’s really easy to take off the radiator. 4 bolts, 2 hoses and a sensor plug, and I think that’s it
videoman223 oh nevermind I just remembered why I took it off. It was to get the little white reserve tank out. My bad
Ah makes sense, so you can't get the reservoir off without taking the rad out? I'm planning on swapping to engine ice soon but want to make it as easy as possible haha.
videoman223 yea unfortunately you need to take the rad off cuz the reservoir tank is in there pretty tight. But when you take it out, you could pour out the reset of the antifreeze in it
Did you flush your radiator and engine with water to remove the old antifreeze?
Kris Sabroff yes of course. With distilled water. I just forgot to film that’s part sorry
