  • Too much engine oil top up

    Hi guys

    Put a bit too much oil in my Magnum M18 and now she belges out clouds of smoke and backfires,cutting out when the throttle is released. Have taken the excess oil out.
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

      Hi Glen
      Plugs are a bit black and have petrol on them. Engine only starts with a bit of choke,but will idle ok,just hell of a smoke when gunning engine.

        Check the air filter.

          If you check the air filter and don't find any oil there to clean up, it may just take a little bit for all of the oil to burn out.

              To much oil is almost the same with no oil, it will result to blow by.
