hello, everyone, I recently acquired a new toy, looking for some pointers, I needed a little project to keep me busy, the atv starts and runs has 27 inch tires and its lifted got it for 750 bucks, smokes like a chimney though, guy said it needed rings, it sure does, another thing I noticed is oil leaking from the bottom end, one of my trikes did this never seemed to have an issue though, what I am asking is, should I put a whole new set of gaskets in along with the rings? I have never done this kind of thing to an atv before, I cant see it being too hard, I have seen that you need a micrometer compression checker etc are these absolutely necessary? I can get the tools, as my father is a mechanic(ya I know he should be doing it but really busy this time of year), but lives an hour away, anyway, some info would be appreciated, thanks.

 

oh and is there any chance someone can provide me a link or download for a service manual? thanks in advance
