I'm glad I watched your video. When I changed the oil today. I bought the ATV from a woman who had the dealer change the oil. I found that the dealer in Arkansas installed the oil filter backwards. This is in spite of the quarter inch letters saying how to orient the filter in the housing. Fortunately, the Rancher was used very little before I changed the oil. This is why I change my own oil on all my vehicles!
Thank you sir for your detailed, precise, hands on video on how to change the Honda Rancher oil and filter, including caveats to avoid potential, costly mistakes, some of which I could easily have made if I hadn’t seen and followed your video.
Love your videos. Thanks so much for taking your time in showing us , in detail, what needs to be done. For some of us, it takes a little longer to understand the DIY of how to work on our own ATV's. I have very high anxiety, and your videos go slow and show what your doing. Thanks again for your help and time.
After you change the oil, and while running, I would keep the side cover off so you can make sure there's no leaks after reinstalling the oil filter cover.
Oil filter direction varies by model, TRX420FA model is opposite shown here. TRX420FA also has a flat cover plate with an arrow on it. Be careful and replace as removed.
I bought a used 2018. The user manual says "3.8 US qt when also changing out the filter. I guess I'll need to ignore the book and start with 2-1/2 quarts and check and add as needed. I'm a bit concerned, because the dipstick shows too much oil in there now.
It's confusing as hell isn't it?! I also have a 2010 Honda Rancher TRX420 4x4 and the owner's manual says 3.8 quarts, but it only needed 3qts with the oil filter change.
In the video it shows the factory oil non syn as 10-30 but when ordering from your link it shows 10-40. does it matter which of the two oils 10-30 or 10-40 ?
Sold separately. I know Honda says to replace the O-Ring every-time but they tend to last for awhile. Buy couple, just to have it on hand, inspect the O-Ring every-time, if all looks good simply reapply some engine oil on it and continue on.
Thank you for your videos! I bought center driveshaft boot from partszilla but not sure how I go about changing it... it has a small rip, I’m just living with it... 04 Honda rancher TRX350
How do I know if this is the proper filter for mine . every kit that I find people are saying this filter is too small. Mine is a 2014 420 , 4×2 drive with semi-automatic shifting
600miles or 100 hours or 12months seems like to much on a oil change atleast for my 300 Fourtrax 3 months seems like max life on the oil and that's not even riding it hard for 3 months same for my cousins 02 foreman
It's truly not... Had mine changed four trips back and 31km remaining of 1000km, changed it again Saturday. It was really dark, and pretty new ATV. Also Honda manual says " When running in very dusty conditions, oil changes should be performed more frequently than specified in the maintenance schedule." Hey do what you think, it's your machine and if you want to be spending out the big bucks on repairs.... :p
Huge fan of your videos. Please keep them coming. Simplicity is the best way to teach people and John does a great job at that.
Tips like don't screw the dipstick in, only plung it when checking the level,, good stuff

Nice looking Honda 90 in the background. I miss mine.
We've done one video with it. Maybe we'll get around to doing more.
Gracias amigo compre mi honda rancher 420 y estoy aprendiendo a darle mantenimiento con tus videos

Thanks for the advice n also your glasses cought me off gard havent seen a magnet center before
Nice video! The oil looked pretty clear to me, strange.
It was prolly engine break in process, or he just doing the oil change a second time bc why tf not😂, not gonna hurt the wheeler at any point n time.
Always the most straight forward videos! Thanks a lot! 🤘🏻

They need to have a recall on the engines they are trash never buy another honda
Absolutely useful. Thank you.
It’s beyond me why they can’t use a spin on filter🤔
It’ll get caught on a limb and get a pinhole and ur screwed !
Thank you for the video.
What size torque wrench would I need to complete the oil change.
Thank yu

You said about 3 quarts in it but your link in the description only ships out 1quart. FYI
Nice video brother
Great video and information. Thank you very much
Thank you.
Very helpful video my friend 👌🏼

10w40 is more heat resistance and it is mor uniwersal for difrent climat.
Does the Oil Filter Element comes with the little O ring attached to it (facing outwards when filter element is installed) or not?

How do you get the "Change Engine Oil" light to go off?
key off, press and hold the trip meter, while holding the trip meter turn key ON, keep holding the trip meter until the light goes off.
Saludos, ayúdeme, cómo se cambia empaques a bomba agua honda trx 420 2011. Ayuda por favor
Drain plug is this reverse thread
Could you a top end rebuild on it?
Do you guys have the left side plastic panel that you took off for sale? I just bought a used 2011 of this model and it didn’t have that panel.
Check out this diagram. Numbers 2 and 5 might fit the bill: www.partzilla.com/catalog/honda/atv/2011/trx420fm-a/side-cover-tank-cover
@@PartzillaParts that will do! Thank you so much.
What size is the crush washer
It should be 12mm.

I guess the people who manufactured the quad must be wrong👍

We are giving away a free oil change kit!
Lies everyone knows hondas don't need oil changes!
Kapen Winton my 2013 has had the oil changed once lmao. About to get it’s second one even though it’s running just fine
Haven’t changed the oil on mine in 5 years figured it was probably time
They don’t offer full synthetic?
