2H smokin

Post by RC_Freak »

Quick ? for all the motor guru's.

I have a 2H motor that has been sitting, unstarted for about 5 months now.
When I first got the motor, I saw it running, and it wasn't blowing smoke at all.
But now, after starting it, it blows white smoke for about 30 seconds out of the exhaust (which I was not really worried about), what i am worried about is it is blowing smoke from the oil cap hole.
So I'm guessing that means the compression rings are stuck.
Is there any way of fixing this without pulling it completely apart?

Thanks in advance.

Matt.

try some engine oil deludger, and new oil. Might be worth buying some cheap oil and running some more sludge clearer through it and see if that comes out dirty, then put a good oil in it.

The white smoke will be a leaking or a few leaking injectors. If there is some white smoke after five months, you may not notice it if your using it every day. Give them a service hey.

Try running some Chemtech Diesel Injector cleaner through it, you can get it from Supercheap .
