New at this hope Im doing this right. I have a 150cc four stroke go cart, its a 150gka-2 with foward and reverse. Im tryn to change the oil and I have a problem with the gear oil. The service dept. told me its same as engine oil, but specs call for 85w-40 and the only fill area I can find is small plug on side of case?? Also, I dont know amount to refill with, I drained out only about 4 oz.?? thanks

Are you trying to fill the gearbox or the engine oil? pictures would help.
I dont know how to post pics? but thanks for reply, there is a photo on atvdiscounter, under 150cc go carts, its baha 150 (gk-08). anyway, under rearend on engine there is small drain bolt, thats where i drained what looks like thick oil, that has water in it, with foul smell. I have the crank oil handled, but I dont think main oil area, it has seperate drain area, will fill rear??

i have no idea, but i know there shouldnt be water in it. The pictures on that site dont show the engine area, its a nice looking kart tho.

Most 4 strokes share engine and clutch/tranny oil.

If it was sharing oil and he only was able to drain 4 ounces his engine is blown by now.
Ok, Thanks For All Input! I Contacted Dealer, Whos A Bit Off, Says Its All The Same. But Why Are There Two, One Regular(15mm) And Small(10mm) Drain Plugs? Drain Under Dip Stick, I Have No Doubt Is Oil, But Small One On Rear Of Engine Is Where Thick, Almost Grease, Was Drained. Im Stumped. Cant Be Same Due To Obvious Viscosity. Ok, Found Out Gear Oil Is 85w/40, Do I Fill In Side, Only Place I Can Find And Anyone Know How Much? See What I Mean About Dealer!
