help please! atc 110 oil spill

[atc110RED]

I was riding an a big bolt with screw fell out of the bottom of my engine, then hot oil leaked out of the hole. I'd tried to tighten this bolt before, but it pushed out the metal rod screw thing out, and did not seem to tighten. I still have everything that dropped out. what should i do now?

i think i've sorted the bolt thing, but its not got any oil in now, checking the dip stick, what do i use? ( general 4 stroke engine oil?) any tips on filling again?

use some 10W40 or 20W50 wont hurt either. I use 20W50 in my 350x thinking the thicker oil would help the smoking..Not A Chance!..

Thank for your help everyone, saved the day again, and it seems a lot faster now? anyway, thanks for the help

oil should be changed every 15 hours of riding. makes the engine last a lot longer.
the filter screen should be removed and cleaned every 30 hours. its situated behind the right hand side engine case.
