Is it lifted?, check your oil level.

Chances are its time to do the pistion rings on it, im starting to see a fair bit of g2,g9's come in smoking badly.

I have heard that some of the markers on the dipsticks were off on the G2. It could have too much oil.

Leetac, do you by any chance have a compression tester?

Also how long has it been smoking for, did it just start happining or, progressively got worse? Did you just get the cart.

I have a G-1 that smoked when hot. I pinched off the oil injector hose and started mixing my gas 50:1 and it works fine now. The oil injection went haywire.

If your engine is a 2 cycle:
There's a simple answer to this one. This will eliminate if your oil injection has simple gone haywire. Pinch off the oil injection tube ( I used one of the squeezers to hold wood together) Mix the gas in your tank 50:1 with 2 cycle oil. This was my problem. If this works you could replace the oil injector or just keep mixing your gas, I prefer this method, I don't trust the injector.
