Alright so i got this fixed. And it runs like a champ. Another question for you BigE since you are a dealer. When i bought this quad i didn't even really look at the certificate of origin But it is a blank one. It just has the companys name coolster And the rest is blank. Also asked a friend and he said his was the same and the dealer told him some of them come like that. My question is Can i get a title for it if i go to the dmv? Because they would want to know the name and model of the quad.

Hey i seem to be having the problem again. i think. Hasnt really been ridden since the last time i fixed it but, I was just checking some stuff over today and i took the valve covers off and decided to take a look see if the pump was still working correctly. SO i took the valve covers off and turned on the engine and the oil wasn't squirting out like it should. It was just a few drops coming down every 2 seconds or so. And there was no oil coming from the top valve. If i remember correctly i think the oil should be squirting out a constant stream. Am i correct in thinking something is wrong here? Or is that normal just as long as oil is traveling to the head?

Alright I was messing with it a lil longer today. And turned it on and let it sit at idle for maybe 15 min when i got back i noticed there was smoke coming off the front of the engine. I thought maybe it was overheating or something. So i took the bottom valve cover off while it was running and a ton of white smoke came out along with oil dripping out. But what would cause the white smoke? I suspect something is overheating. I know the rings and piston are fine because i had just replaced those 3 days ago. And there's no smoke coming out of the exhaust.Just the front somewhere. let me know what you guys think i should look at thanks.
