i have gas getting in my oil tried to adjust my valves and my bike is smoke white been reading alot online white smoke can be water or gas and blue smoke oil i dont have any blue smoke but a consistent stream of whit smoke i changed the oil and still smoking could my timimng be off??or valves not adjdusted properly i cleaned my carb i just cant win..

 

hmmm... sometimes oil can look more white than blue... rings maybe?

id check the compression...

 

i had a float stick on my lt230, the needle and seat would not stop the fuel from flowing so because of the angle of my intake the fuel would run into the head leak past the rings and get into the oil .this does not mean your rings are bad all rings leak until they are expanded or under compression. see if turning your fuel line off after every ride takes care of the issue

 

ok everyone sorry for the delay in response was waiting for all the parts to come so i did a complete top end on it new valves seals,rings,piston and all new gaskets,timing chain,chain guides my bike is still smoking could my timing be out still?its burning oil im so stumbled cleaned the carb out so that took care of my gas in the oil problem but its still smoking does anyone have a service manual they can scan and email me the page on how to set the timing.think its pretty self explanatory line on the came line up horizontally to the head with cam lobes facing down and flywheel on o for tdc im so lost please help me

 

when you did the topend, did you have the cylinder bored or atleast honed?

 

no i dont have a hone is there any possibility i can remove the jug and have it honed and still use the new rings that i already installed or do i have to buy new rings again?

 

uh oh!

how much time do you have on those new rings?

 

not much bike smokes so much i dont ride it maybe 30-45 min most of it at idle

 

You can use sandpaper instead of a hone, just dont go up and down. As for re-using the rings......You may be up the creek. As for timing, Theres a plug you can take out on the right sidecover on the front side of the cover. Theres an arrow that lines up in that hole. Just keep easing the motor till you see that mark. Then line the marks up on the cam with the head. Thats perfectly in time, But mine is smoking just LIKE yours. lol But I think its my rings.

 

first thing take a compressin test and see if it at 100 your goi need rings 150 ok 190 your really good but form what you have said I tell you its your rings and no don't reuse your rings get new one
have your cylinder get honed or if I was you do right bored out get new piston and rings you may get by with honeing it and that's risk and more money
