EO Problem

[Hagakure]

Been having a problem with my EO lately.

Seem to disappear & I have been topping up every week for the past month.

No leakage or anything since I've found out about this problem & been checking the level daily.

Mech can't figure out the problem & I can't just go on topping up EO on a weekly basis.

Anyone had experience this before?

Stress?!!

What is your bike, maybe you can provide more details.

 

Is there smoke from your exhaust?

[SparkerS1]

what is the colour of ur smoke?

i believe its time for u to change ur gaskets or seal.

what bike u riding??????

[Hagakure]

Am riding a TW200.

My mech has also asked me too if there's any white smoke but none whatsoever.

No leakage on engine or on the floor too.

There are only 2 possible reasons why oil disappears in 4 stroke engine, disregarding massive leakage...

 

1. Worn valve stem seals

 

2. Worn piston rings

 

Anyways, you need to do a top overhaul.

Have you recently changed to another type of EO which is too "thin" for your bike?

 

Or in another words, is the EO the correct rating for your bike?

 

If everything is correct, then the mostly likely problem(s) will be what ulysses_sc has mentioned...

EO...do not burn...

they do not disaapear into no where..

only way for EO to get out of engine is..leakages==u will see it on the floor

or through the exhaust..

suggest u try to ram your engine at high rpm...i am not surprise u see all sort of smoke coming out....

I just did an overhaul about a month back.

Then this problem came up, never did before.

Did all those you mentioned, that's why am totally dumbfounded.

Nothing of the sort since I do check my engine & exhaust often especially when this thing occurred, the checks get more frequent.

Been using the same EO all this time

is your engine runs very hot??

presumed everythings r ok, there r not leakage n just overhauled engine.

carb r set very lean, engine will run extremely hot.

extreme heat will coz engine oil to vapourise.

 

solution: set carb richer.

 

check your spark plug colouration when tuning carb.

 

from lean to rich,

electrode end should have colour

from white (lean) > brown (ok) > grey (ok) > black (rich).

try changing to a thicker oil.. see if the problem still occurs..

 

are u very sure there is no smoke from ur exhaust? hrmphs.. it doesnt dissappear just like that..
