Hey,

This is my first post on this site. I signed up in hope that I could get some help on some problems I've been having with my quads. I was riding my kfx 700 (which is piped with DMC duals and is jetted) today and it just cut out and started blowing smoke everywhere. It was also only coming out of one pipe, the one on the left side. I have no idea what's going on. I hope it's not serious.

That is normal if you were riding wheelies or climbing long steep hills. When you change your oil, do not fill to top. I go to the middle of the stick. I have not had any more problems since.

 

My Prairie did that once, I had put two much oil in it and it backed up threw the crankcase tube.

 

Nope I don't think it was the airbox or the oil I chrcked it out and it was fine. However I checked out my pipe on the right side and it was clogged with the muffler packing because the things that you wrap the packing around came apart from two missing bolts on end piece of the muffler. So my dad thinks all the exhaust fumes were forced out of the right pipe and that's why it smoked. So after I cleared out my pipe the smoke was gone and it ran a little better. But now it runs fairly good, however it hesitates and sputters a little on the bottom end and it doesn't idle smoothly it just starts get faster than slower and if you leave it in drive it'll just start moving when it idles up. I think that maybe it's idling weird because one pipe has packing and one doesn't which would cause different back pressure.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

You might also check your spark plugs. If the packing blocked the exhaust it wouldn't let the cylinder clean out and might of fouled the spark plug
