Yamaha Raptor 2001 Help!

I went to the track today and was changing the jet sizes and changing the positon of the clip on the needles in the carbs on my Raptor. Well, after making a few passes "killing the banshees" I heard a few knocks in the motor and then it quit after about 15 seconds. Now, when I unscrew the top off my oil jug the oil is all the way to the top. When I crack the motor with the oil stick out, it will shoot the oil about 1foot on every stroke. What could it be??????? I really need help Raptor riders before I go taking this thing down again.

By the way...... I run a 5.32 in the 300feet drag "On Dirt"

DMC Alien Complete system, K&N stage2 kit, 155-160, lowered front 2 inches with banshee shocks.

This is no help on your oil problem although I have had it blow it out after adding oil when I thought it was low. Not knowing for sure why it did it, I changed the oil and filter to make sure I had the correct amount in it. They make it hard to check and know for sure.
How about telling me about changing to the Banshee shocks. Do you feel like you have lost a lot of handling? Thanks.

The shocks made it keep from wheeling up when I leave the line in the drag. But for handling, I wouldn't do to many high jumps because the front will bottom out. Other than that, I love it......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
