Oil Change Info
This is a basic run-down of what is involved when changing the oil on the new Ducati Diavel. The process is pretty much identical to the 848, 1098, 1198, and Streetfighter engines, but for those who haven’t done an oil change on any Ducatis, this will get you going. Tools needed; -5mm & 4mm allen drive sockets -Ratchet -Torque wrench -Oil filter socket or other filter tool, 17mm wrench for K&N KN-153. -Flat head screwdriver and rubber mallet (in case the oil filter is stuck) -needle nose pliers -Ducati ThreeBond 1215 (or other high temp liquid gasket) -funnel (when refilling) -oil pan -shop light (optional) -OIL! -Bucket or other container for old oil. Full Synthetic 4T 10w40, 15w50, or any other weight for your local ambient temperatures listed in the manual. I prefer Mobil 1 4T Racing Full Synthetic, Motul 4T Racing Full Synthetic, or Repsol 4T Racing Full Synthetic. Oil filter is Ducati part # 444.4.003.5A or a K&N KN-153.

Part 1 of 2 Doing an oil change on a 2009 Kawasaki Nina 650R. It’s EXTREMELY easy to do an oil change, and I show you here. It took me about 30 minutes to do the change, including clean up. This part, I put on the new filter, torque it to 13 ft.lbs, put on the oil drain bolt, torque that to 22 ft.lbs. Add oil, start the engine to fill the oil filter, and check the oil level. After that, I put the fairing back on, then it’s done (aside from clean up, recycling of the oil, and remove the bike from the stands) If you need more information, a good site for the 650R oil change is : www.magnum1.com
Part 1 of 2 Doing an oil change on a 2009 Kawasaki Nina 650R. It’s EXTREMELY easy to do an oil change, and I show you here. It took me about 30 minutes to do the change, including clean up. First part, I remove the lower fairing, put the bike on lift stands, and drain the oil pan and take off the oil filter.
What do I mean by “Top Kill” oil change? It’s a stand-up oil change you do entirely from above, without jacking up the car and crawling underneath. It’s possible with the 2010 GMC Terrain and Chevy Equinox because the base 4-cylinder Ecotec engine has a top-mounted cartridge-style oil filter that you remove from above. But that’s not all. I’m also using a Moeller vacuum pump to suck the oil up and out through the dipstick tube. The vacuum pump is a great investment, but it’s probably not worth it if your car has a regular oil filter that must be changed from below, which means you have to jack-up the car and place it on stands anyway. At that point, you might as well drain the oil out the bottom in the usual way. As you’ll see in the video, my “Top Kill” oil cleanup efforts were much more successful and much less messy than BP’s problem in the Gulf.
The dipstick is the standard way to gauge oil levels.
