I have 500 hundred miles on my Rancher and it has been well taking care of.
But today after riding I ckecked out my air box. To my supize it had 1" of oil in it.Its coming from the crank case.Because I found that was low.
Any body know whats going on? Please help.

Thank You

 

I have that problem to when i posted it they said its from the air filter oil i might take it in saturday and have them check it out

 

I know this is not the oil I put on the filter.There is way to much for that.Plus I can smell gas in it.

 

Im I the only one with this problem?
I talk to my dealer today.He said I must have had the front end way up in the air,and the oil came from my crank case though the hose that goes to the air box.But i havent had the front end up.He told me to bring it in and he would look at it.If anybody knows how to solve this problem please let me know.I dont want to have to pay him if i can fix this myself. thanks

 

I have 00 scrambler 500 and i had the same problem, took it the shop and they said the the crankcase was over full. haven had another problem with it it yet.

 

Have you recently rolled it or set it on its side. I set my Rancher on its right side on a trail and the airbox filled up with oil due to the crankcase breather.

 

I havent had it on its side or rolled it.Im wondering if mybe the 0-20degree temp Ive been riding in froze a valve in that crank case hose.If there is a valve in it?

 

Did you recently have a oil change?

No oil change for a couple months.I keep it just below the full mark. Mybe with the oil being thick from the cold? I Dont know.We havent had a problem with our recon.

 

My Rancher does the same thing. It seems that when you change the oil, and refill the crank case mounted oil tank with the recomended amount of oil, it is slightly over full. I've changed my oil 4-5 times, and every time it will fill the clear tube in the air box with oil at least twice. After that it seems to stop. BTW the oil is coming up through the crank case breather.
