Keep plenty of oil handy to top off each time you go out and keep riding it.

 

Yep. If it runs good, just feed the habit.

 

I found a 95 Big Bear 350 2x4.
What are you thoughts on them?
It has new rear tires. Front tires will need replaced. Going to ride it tomorrow.

 

Big Bears are tuff ATV , you do not need great tires on the front on a 2wd.

 

Well I end up passing on the 95 BB. It was $500. It did not run like he said it did.
It needs carb work bad. It idled up and down, back fired and you could feel the air box lid going up and down. Probably a carb kit would have fixed all this. Their was a metal noise that I will not be able to explain other than it was not normal. Guy said a chain in the motor was slapping around because of the idle problems. Not real sure. Rear end was covered in oil. None of the lights worked. Break cables needed adjusted. After running it I check the oil level. It was low. Guy also thought the oil cooler was a radiator. Front rack need some re-welding and a few bolts. Rear rack also need a bolt. I felt it was not worth the gamble. He would not take any less. I felt like is was not maintained properly.

 

Good move.

 

Would too much oil push oil out high in the engine?

 

Probably not, unless the level was high enough to cover the breather and I think that is on the cam end cover on the Moto 4. There are lots of places where oil can leak from on the cylinder head. Most common are leaks from the rocker covers, but that breather, the cam end cover O ring, and the ends of the rocker shafts are all places that can leak. Clean the head then run the engine for a short time and check all these places for oil weeping out.
