2022 Hisun 750 Sector

Just wondering if I forfeit my warranty if I perform the first oil change after break in. Don’t want to transport back to dealer for him to drop the oil and filter. Need to know the facts about that before I decide to do it myself.

Just talked to Hisun and they said I could do the oil changes but to make sure I purchase the Hisun oil filter and use a good quality 10w40 wet clutch motorcycle oil. I new about the oil, but wanted to make sure about the filter. With that said by following that guideline, it won’t void your warranty if something happens during that period. I don’t like not being able to do my own maintenance.

I used Mobil 1 4T-10w-40 when I owned a Coleman (Hisun).  There was a noticeable improvement in the shifter and sound of the machine.

Oil filter was difficult to find.  Finally found one for the 550 on Amazon:

Just happened to notice in my service manual the recommended oil weight is 10W30 and it doesn’t mention synthetic. I’m a firm believer in synthetic oils, seeing I use them in all my vehicles that call for that. I’m going to call Hisun and see what they say. I’ll let you know if your interested and if not no biggy

IIRC, my manual also said 10-30.  Living in Texas (hot summers), I have always believed that stepping up in viscosity never hurts anything.  After 40+ years, I have never had an issue in any of my vehicles or toys.  But ultimately, it's your call.

Don't mean to be a negative nancy, but based on my experience, you will have other issues with your Hisun long before you have issues related to oil viscosity.

Oh no problem, I get it. I’m an Amsoil guy so I understand where your coming from. Buts that’s a whole different animal if you know what I mean. I had added another post about valve adjustment at 20 hours. Do you care to comment. And thanks for your input, I have an opened mind and willing to listen. This is how we all learn the good and bad. Just sorry I wasn’t on this forum earlier, I would have purchased something else for what I read, lol

I never adjusted the valves.  I traded mine for a Kubota after 80 hours.  I did so because I had 3 lab reports run on the oil.  It was eating itself from the inside out.  I dumped it before I got stuck with a boat anchor.  My advice would be that you get the oil analyzed.  I use Blackstone Labs.  They will mail you a collection kit.  You mail it back to them.  You get a report that shows all of the details and he explains what they mean.

Well that’s exciting news, NOT!!! Really not looking forward to that. Maybe if I run 10W30 it won’t happen (lol) just kidding. I’m still wondering if the valves really need to be checked like the book says or it’s just another way to get it in the shop for more revenue. My use for this machine is just to drive it around the neighborhood with the wife. It will probably never see dirt seeing I bought it for her. Don’t see us playing hard but it may not take that either from what I’m reading. We would have got a gas powered golf cart but they can’t make it up the inclines we have in the Georgia mountains

Well, as my aunt always tells me "don't borrow trouble".  You may not have a lemon like I did.   Getting an oil analysis will protect at least some of your investment if it turns out to be a similar situation.  At least you will know that you need to take steps before it completely seizes up.  I wouldn't worry about the valves right now if it were me.  You would know if they were way out of whack.   Engine bogging down.  Loss of power when it warms up. etc.

I hope you have better luck than I did.

2018 Coleman (Hisun) 550.  Bought it at Tractor Supply.  Well equipped.  Nice looking machine.

      2016 Hisun 500 runs rough no power
      By CapnWalleye
      Just picked up a Hisun 500 that had shift issues (corroded fan gear) which I fixed. It also didn't seem to be running smoothly then all of a sudden it got worse. It seems to miss on both idle and when pushing the gas pedal to the floor and doesn't seem to be running at full power. I've been working with a local person who is walking me through some steps, but I'd like some input from this group as well. What I've done:
      - drained the fuel tank and replaced it with 93 octane fuel and added heet to help with any water problems.
      - replaced the fuel injector.
      - disconnected the battery (several times) to allow the module to reset.
      - set the valve clearance, both intake and exhaust, within specs ... intake was tight but exhaust seemed fine.
      - replaced the battery.
      - replaced the O2 sensor.
      Nothing has helped. Not sure what the next steps are, but would appreciate any expertise that can be offered here.

      Sector E1 Battery change out
      By Gorj
      I am going to replace the batteries in my E1. I am not interested in the high cost Lithium or the expensive 6 volt dry batteries.  I am considering four 12 volt deep charge marine batteries. I have a source for 810 amp units for about $100 each.  I have no worries about reprograming the charger because it went out a few years ago and I replaced it with generic golf cart charger. When I decide to do this, I'll keep you posted on the results.

      Code Reader for Delphi MT05 Coleman UTV 400 Hisun
      By Homeowner A
      Is there a code reader available for the Coleman UTV 400?  I tried using the HUD ECU Hacker software and cables/adapters but no luck OBD to delphi 6 pin and KKL VAG as well as ELM327.  Will not connect.  I was able to get it to connect randomly a couple of times, but haven't been able to since.  I was able to clear and read the codes briefly.  I'm aware of the Tiny Scan 301 but it doesn't seem to be readily available.  There's a few out there but they are expensive.

      By Marie
      Hello, we recently got a 2013 Hisun 800 as a little project for my husband and I to work on. Turns out the guys before us loved the mud anyway. We have replaced the stator and now going to do the Rectifier but here is the hold up as seen in the picture. There are tons of wires going to the battery. I cant seem to find anything that shows what wires should, or shouldn't be attached to the battery or where these 2 plugs go. if someone would please take some pics or share knowledge to where they go I would appreciate it greatly.
