  1. I'm having another issue with my 2019 Buck 400. When I push in on the brake and turn the ignition to start nothing happens. If I pump the brake several times it will start right up.  Does anybody know where the relat is that prevents it from starting until you apply the brake? I think it must be loose or something like that.

    Thanks for your help.

  2. OK I called Massimo Tech service.  It is as I thought but I don't like it.  There is a hex nut at the bottom of the dipstick. You have to remove the entire dipstick to fill wit oil.

    Not a smart setup. It takes about 1.4 QT. of 10W30.

  3. Still looking for help changing the oil on my Buck 400. It looks like maybe I have to remove the shifting cable and the remove the  dip stick? surely it is easier than that. 

    This is a 2019 model. I have around 150 miles on it.

     

    Thanks

  4. Mine looks nothing like the illustration you sent.  Mine is a 391cc engine in a Massimo  Buck 400.

    So  I believe the dip stick to check engine oil is the yellow one. Below it maybe 5 inches is a small plastic dip stick.  It comes out and is maybe 3 to 3.5 inches long. If the engine oil is shared by the transmission? Maybe this is where to fill the oil. It seems to be to low for the engine oil?

    I have attached a photo  I took today.

    Thanks for your help.

  5. I purchased this Buck 400 last year and having a few issues. Maybe some members have had these and fixed them.

    Here are my current issues with the B400.
    1. Starting has become a challenge. Not the actual starting of the engine but to keep it running. When I turn the key, it starts up but as soon as I let go of the key and it turns back, the 400 dies. I have learned if I hold the key for a few seconds it will remain running.  Not a clue as to what would cause this or how to fix it?
    2. This thing  is very hard to get in gear now. It grinds a lot before it goes in gear. Maybe the clutch needs adjusting?
    3. I jerks a lot on take off. This could also be the clutch?
     
    Any help would be appreciated.
