[sideshow_bob]

Hey guys-when i got my atc 200 -it took some carb work to get going but it smokes blue smoke im guessing the muffler has oil on it???

:TrikesOwn thanx a million guys

take the muffler out and clean it out with varsol or kerosean or something of that nature, then put it back on...if its still burning blue then you got worn rings or valve seals.

Well i can get a new exhaust system free-when i rev it up more it smokes more-internal problems?

I thought in march you were looking for rings for this trike? Maybe you need a complete motor overhaul. Do a compression test and go from there.

diddo to kando. And it also its burning oil thats why its blue= piston rings

[TrikerR]

also you can tell if its rings by the colour of oil and if oil starts getting blown out the crankcase vent tube.

Not always true. If it smokes when your giving it gas, which was stated, it is the valves/valve seals.
