I just tapped a slightly smaller af socket on a Scorpio with a butchered plug. It wouldn't have come loose with vice grips. Those large o rings can expand until they are too big. Buy a spare.
The owner provided me with a Hiflo Filtro HF141. I included a link in the video description for a K&N filter because I couldn't find the same one on Amazon. Enjoy the new bike!
I'm not sure one way is better than the other but I usually put the flat side against the engine for whatever reason. It's just a side effect from the cheap process of punching o-rings from a sheet of metal. O-rings that cost more and are sold individually are usually uniform.
The BEST oil change video for the XT250 on RUclips. 👍
Thank you so much! My goal is to make the best DIY content available.
Informative and to the point. Great work.
Really high quality video, thanks much!
Thank you
Well done video! Very detailed.
Thank you
Does anyone happen to know the size of the drain plug for the xt250? Thank you!

Thank you so muck
Great video, thanks!! The motorcycle stand that you linked, is that the one that you actually used for this vid? Appreciate it in advance.
Thank you! Yep, I have the same stands in the link but my front stand is red. I don't think they had a black one available when I bought it.
@@EndlessMoneyPits Thank you!
Hi I've just bought a 2009 for my wife. What oil filter did you install. Cheers

What size o rings do I need to buy ? Thanks
I couldn't find this info when making the video and just had another unsuccessful look. If you come across the answer, please let us know.
is the round side of the crush washer towards the engine? ( or the flat one? )
