my hisun 400 has ben leaking oil out of a small metal tube on the bottom near the oil filter. Got the side by side given to me after been sitting for a couple years  but 2 quarts in nothing happened my buddy went and worked on it and put another quart in it. i thought it just pushed out what it didn't need. but its dry as a bone inside. does have a good clatter coming from the top end as well, with oil in it. looking for some help not much on the internet about these things.

Hey Trevor,

Do you have a picture so we can try to help figure out what it is?

Don't run it low on oil, it only holds like 2.5L so 2 low is more or less empty. Running it empty of oil may cause it to self destruct rapidly, which may explain the rattle.

Mine is doing the same thing! Why isn't their any info for these things online? Same story with me. Bought it for cheap from a family member that couldn't get it running. I got it running but oil was very low. I added oil and it leaks from a tube on the bottom of the engine near the filter.

I took a picture of it but I can't figure out how to post it here. I'm currently not home to take another one but it is dripping out of a steel nipple that points straight down near the oil filter under the driver's seat. It just drips slowly and after sitting for about three weeks in my barn it looks like at least a quart has dripped out.

there's a nipple under the oil filter that is the water pump weep hole. It shouldn't have oil coming out, you may get a tiny bit of coolant from time to time if the water pump seal is weeping. if theres a flow the water pump seal has failed and you'll need a new water pump.

      Hi
      I have a 2022 hisun sector eps 550. 30amp fuse is blown for eps. Checked the motor and it’s fine. Opened up the controller and found a bad diode. Dealer wanted 500$ for the controller. Just posting this in case it helps someone. I couldn’t read numbers from the old one so just took a guess and replaced it with a 100v 3amp diode.

      Hello All,
      We have exhausted all possible troubleshooting steps, now we are in need of some help. 
      Vehicle cranks but will not turn over. Things we have either replaced or tested and are now known good:
      1. Fuel pump (new)
      2. Fuel sensor (new)
      3. Fuel injector (new)
      4. Battery (new)
      5. Spark plug (new), spark tested
      6. fuses (12v to all)
      7. we have 12v at the injector module and 11 ohms resistance
      8. we have fuel in the fuel line to the injector
      9. we have fuel at the spark plug
      10. we have injector pulse, verified with noid tester
      11. brake safety switch tested (couldn't find a separate switch assuming it is using the brake light switch)
      12. seat belt buckled and seat in place (again, not sure if this model has these features)
      13. replaced air filter
      14. replaced several air hoses
      15. flushed radiator and replaced with diluted antifreeze
      16. Drained and cleaned the fuel tank prior to replacing the fuel pump.

      I am actively looking for an oil filter for my Lowe’s branded Axis x550. Lowe’s sold me a spin on filter but every video I’ve seen shows a cylinder filter. Of course Hisun’s website is a year behind not listing anything 2025 and my searches have turned up nothing. Does anyone know what filter I need ( cylinder or spin on) and where I can find one?
      thanks

      2018 Massimo 700 MSU. The machine started burning oil all of a sudden. One day fine-- next morning burning oil. Looking for advice. Do I pull the engine to inspect the top end or can it be done with the engine in place? Pro? Cons?
      Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated in advance.
