What does the exhaust smell like?
White smoke from exhaust?

I haven't smelt the exhaust
Not white smoke but clouds of blue smoke.
I haven't put too much 2 stroke oil in mix either, before someone states this.
Gear box oil dosen't smell of petrol, but as I say light green in colour and frothy

generally if the D/S seal has gone, the smoke will be white and smell bleedin' awful.
Is the crankcase oil level dropping?

Not noticably, I usually put in 500ml. I drained it out into a seperate tub. When I get chance I will put this into old g/box oil bottle and see if if any has been lostbristolmod wrote:generally if the D/S seal has gone, the smoke will be white and smell bleedin' awful.
