People 50 / 2 stroke scooter blowing white exhaust smoke
« on: June 20, 2011, 03:18:33 PM »
hi everyone! Im new to the site and have to sayin theres a wealth of info here 
Well, I have a 2002 Kymco People that I adore. I made a moved from fort lauderdale to Tampa and here im not able to ride her as much bc of all the highways around me. Anyway so she was sitting for about 5 months and I pulled the carb cleaned her up real nice. She had a rough start but eventually turned on. To my surprise she was blowing a lot of pure white smoke. I was told to put a bit of seafoam but that didnt stop the smoke at all! I put some fresh fuel and shes still smokin smh. She runs great but the smoke is embarrassing and it smells like something is burning. The exhaust pipe has a bit of burnt oil in the end.
Ive had her for a year and a half and I've changed the transmission oil once and regular oil changes (without cleaning the screen bc I just found out where it was).
Today im headed to get some oil to replace the old and was told octane boost would eliminate the smoke.
So any recommendations?
How many quarts do you guys used just in case im putting too much?
How do you clean the oil screen?
Thanks again!
