Question

How often do i need to change my oil on my 97 banshee also gear oil?

Answer 1

You have 2 kinds of oil in your Yamaha Banshee

Premix oil and Gearbox oil. You should always use a good quality premix oil such as Yamalube Semi Synthetic 2-Stroke Racing Oil this stays suspended in fuel longer and gives great protection under extreme use conditions. Always use a mix cup for mixing your fuel/oil and mix at a Ratio of 32:1 in a 5 gallon container.Going leaner than this will give you increased engine performance as well as increased engine wear.hence the 32:1 ratio ensures maximum engine life when mixed correctly.

In the transmission of your Banshee there is separate Gear oil for the transmission gears. Again you should use a good quality oil such as Yamalube Transmission oil.

This is the same transmission oil the used from factory and it should be changed every 20 hours.

Answer 2

should say in you manul but ever 60 hours running time or six mounths wich ever comes first.

Answer 3

I would say every 3 to 4 tanks of fuel you burn.....change both when you change them.......remember oil's cheap repairs are expensive.  Hope this helps.
