jjfizzle51 Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 hey all i was riding my bike on the street and all off a sudden i hear a loud backfire and it sounded wierd now it feels weak on top. when i got it home i just looked it over and smoke was coming out of the clutch case. this is my first 2 stroke and i have barley any mechanical skills so even if i went down in there i wouldnt know what is wrong. so do you guys have any idea what i did thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badbanshee01 Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 That oil will work fine from what I have heard the 80/85 weight is the best you can get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FasterThanU90 Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 ur reeds arent that hard to check and while ur in there id just replace them with sum boyessen there pretty cheap and u can use ur old cages just plop out ur carbs were the rubber boot is on the side closest to the engine thers 4 allens holding it on and ur reeds r right there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIRST BANSHEE Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 what are more symptoms of this ? cause i have no clue and i dont want to tear the bike apart till i know exactly what im doing 469761[/snapback] if you have a broken reed it will be hard to start,push gas back through the carb to the filter. it could of backfired because it was overheated. was smoke coming from the clutch cover or just the clutch side of the engine?antifreeze on a hot engine will smoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
