I bought my first ATV(Coolster 3150DX2) back in February 2016 and built it with help. I also had help with emptying the "shipping oil" out and putting in a new bottle of 15w-40.
So I warmed up the engine a few minutes and took off the 17mm and drained the oil and noticed a spring and strainer flew out into the drip pan. I have NO idea on what order they go back in. I watched several videos about it, all of them said that I made a mistake. Supposedly their are two size bolts down there, 14mm and 17mm. The 14mm shouldn't be touched, but I don't see any other bolt that is down there. 
Please help.
I will attach a couple pictures.

You took  out the  oil filter  plug.  The  screen  goes in first, screen facing out . then  the  spring  and finally the plug..

The  other  bolt you  show is the right one ..  Here  is an excellent  video  of the  drain   and removal / replacement  of the  oil filter screen.

Thank you. 

I took out the correct 17mm and more oil came out. It's running good again, but it was smoking a little. It wasn't the exhaust but it looked like the oil was smoking or something. It's not smoking anymore though.

      2005 Bruin 350cc Oil pumping into airbox
      By BruceG
      Hi guys. I have a problem where the quad will start and run well for about 5 minutes and then it dies. On inspection the airbox has oil in it (quite a lot). The oil is pumping through the cylinder head breather hose. This problem first happened suddenly. I have since done the top end including, piston, gaskets, rings and valves. I have also done the carb (not that I thought that this was the problem). The compression seems normal. The only thing that I can think of, is that I did not grind the valves well enough. Anyone experienced this? If so, how did you fix it? Any other thoughts?

      Help with 1987 Yamaha Big Bear YFM350FWT Carb
      By ResQ91
      Hi Guys!

      New member and could really use your advice. I would have to believe this has been an issue for others but a search here came up with nothing......? (Probably me not doing search correctly)
       
      I have an 87 Big Bear 350 YFM350FWT
      The OEM Mikuni BTM carb is shot and would rather replace than rebuild.
      It is no longer made and I have had good luck with NICHE carbs so I ordered a #K-CRB-0006 This was what they said was replacement when ordered. This Carb only uses 1 Throttle cable. The Slide is linked so it uses one. (OEM had 2nd cable coming through top to move slide)
       
      Problem is when I ordered a replacement Cable from NICHE (#C-CBL-0061) the Cable wire is a little short, not allowing Throttle to return all the way down to Idle position. I called NICHE and they are at a loss. Haven't gotten back to me after 2+ weeks.
       
      What would you recommend other than a carb rebuild?
      Can I just use 1 of the OEM cables (It is the right length) and snip/disconnect the other that went to top of Carb for Slide?
      Or ??
       
      Thanks in advance for any advice you have!!

      Looking to buy a new SUV
      By Gwbarm
      I have been exploring all the options available, so many, its hard to choose. I have kind of narrowed it down to the Honda Pilot, Subaru Outback, and Kind of looking at the Outlander, although its a little small,  the new one is nice looking. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations or gripes with any of these rides. I have driven Jeeps for the past 25  years and they have been great, but their price point has gotten to high. Expieriences good or bad would be helpful. Thanks!
