Finally!!!

[bear]

My daughter and I finally got to take the buggy's out yesterday for our first run of the year, and to make sure I did all repairs right, both buggy's performed awesome! Lots of grunt and good topend for just a few modest mods and parts replacement. Now the bummer, at the end of the day on our last run out, the blue buggy suddenly starts to smoke! I didnt loose a lick of performance, so I hope it just something to do with valves, or rings. I've gotta leave back out of town very early tomarrow again so investigating this may be on hold for now, but I'm gonna try to sneak out to the garage for a quick appraisal today, if I dont get busted by the Mrs. lol

Hopefully it's just the breather tube leaking some oil on the exhaust pipe. fingers crossed.

Good newz it was just a minor oil leak, I just hope it didnt do any damage, I"ll have to wait til I get back home this weekend to see!!!!

Nice to see you were able to enjoy all the long winter work on your buggys. The oil leak is part of what we do, ride em brake em fix em. I hope your next time out will be just ridding no fixing.

glad to hear it was something simple bear.

Thanks guys, still havent made it home to see if I did any damage running it low on oil! but if so I'll just have to tear into it and fix it, after all thats what we do right?!!!

Got back in town last night around 7pm and after settling in a bit I was able to sneak out to the garage to check the blue bugyy out. I made sure everything was tight and fluids where good and fired it up, NO SMOKE!! or "bad" sound from the engine, hopefuly the buggy gods have smiled on me! Now if I could just get the chance to take them out and run them this weekend!!! hehehe

Glad it went well and hope you get to ride. I got to ride mine around the hood yesterday a bit. I just got my perf CDI on so got a good test of that and it was noticable.

Well I got a chance to take old blue out today, and it is still smoking! its running strong, and starts right up, and idles fine, but it is smoking! so I probably just hurt the new rings I put in it and will have to replace them agian! Oh well at least I know how its done now!
