How often should the oil filter of CFMOTO 250SR be replaced?
1 Answers
New vehicles typically require replacement every 5,000 kilometers or three months. The official manual states that the break-in period is 1,000 kilometers, during which both the engine oil and oil filter need to be replaced. Location of the oil filter: The oil filter, also known as the engine filter, is located within the engine lubrication system. Upstream of the oil filter is the oil pump, and downstream are the various engine components that require lubrication. Types of oil filters: Oil filters can be categorized into full-flow and bypass types. The full-flow filter is connected in series between the oil pump and the main oil gallery, filtering all lubricating oil entering the main gallery. The bypass filter is connected in parallel with the main oil gallery, filtering only a portion of the oil delivered by the pump. Function of the oil filter: It removes harmful impurities, supplying clean oil to moving parts such as the crankshaft, connecting rods, camshaft, turbocharger, and piston rings, providing lubrication, cooling, and cleaning effects, thereby extending the lifespan of these components.
