Request for Trailmaster 300XRX Owners
 
Two weeks ago I purchased my 1st go-kart. Without a no service manual, I haven't been able to identify the oil drain plug. Would someone please explain to me exactly where its located.
There are three bolts available, two of which I expect to be on the under-side of the tranny.

Thanks in advance..

do not drain the tranny.....no need
engine oil plug is under the dipstick

Thanks for the quick reply...

The reason I posted the request was in order to avoid removing the tranny drain-plug. The 'service instructions' read "Remove the drain plug located on the right rear side of the engine". Unfortunately, the only plug/bolt on the right rear is on the bottom of the tranny. There is no bolt whatsoever below, or under the dipstick on the motor that I have. There is one bolt-head in the middle-underside of the motor, might that be it? I'm new to wrenching chinese motors, and want to avoid mistakes on a brand-new machine. I do appreciate the feedback as there are no other sourses of info on the motor that I'm aware of.

Thanks again, its much appreciated...

yea thats probably it it's either a 17mm or 19mm head.

You're absolutely right, it was a 19mm.
Oil wasn't as bad as I had expected it to be, and very-little debris. It was shipped with 2 miles on the odo and I put 2 on it last-week here in my driveway. I'm waiting for a new fuel petcock to arrive from the dealer, and as soon as it's back up and running I'll put another 5-10 on it before changing the oil again.
Now I need to find a means of verifying which of the two bolts on the bottom of the tranny is the drain-plug. I read an old post here warning against removing the other bolt as it creates a whole new set of issues, which I'd prefer to avoid at all cost...
