Cart Smoking at Startup
Ok. Let me explain myself. I bought an 05 txt that was basically a re-manufactured cart from a local dealer. It was lifted and has tires and wheels had new paint...looked brand new. I have changed the oil and put synthetic in it..1.5qts. It is right at the top of the dipstick. When I crank it it has a little white-gray smoke at the start and clears out. I know alot of you say that when you change the oil on a lifted cart it should be at 1/2 -3/4 of dipstick with 1.5 qts. Mine was at the top. Now I didn't jack my cart up on passengers side when draining the oil. So, I am hoping that some oil was still in there and I am over full for a lifted cart. I smoked a little worse this weekend at the lake having to go up and down hills. Anymore ideas? Maybe bad valve seals? Thanks

Re: Cart Smoking at Startup
It sounds like you have overfilled the oil to me. Did it smoke before you changed the oil ?

Re: Cart Smoking at Startup
Maybe a little. But the oil level was at full then. I did tweak governor and then changed oil.
