SOURCE: why is my 1997 ski doo 583 grand touring is dumping to much oil into the gass when running. it smokes badly and spits and sputters when you give it gass. what is it?

Time to rebuild most likely cooked internals but its easy just take your time disassembling to remember the assembly and a friend at a machine shop helps or a hone or equivalent

SOURCE: how do I adjust the oil mixture on my 1997 ski doo 583 grand touring snowmobile

The Oil Injection runs off a Pump on the Bottom of the engine and if I remember correctly... There is a Cable that runs off the Throttle and you can adjust it there. I have always been a fan of adding Oil to the Fuel Directly. I have replaced way too many engines due to Oil Starvation so as an added precaution, I still pre-mix my Fuel/Oil but the Ratio is not a complete 40-50/1. More like a 100-125/1. Do I ever foul out a plug? I DO... have I ever Oil Starved an Engine... NEVER... 2 Spark Plugs last me an entire season but I replace them at the Beginning of the season.... I would STRONGLY RECOMMEND cleaning the Hose that comes from the tank....
