RS EHO35 Blowing Some Smoke

[Deleted Member 4613]

Voila!! She's fixed. Started up quickly, smooth acceleration,
no smoke or oil anywhere. I will changed back to the RS 35
so I don't have to add oil to the gas. And I will readjust the
valve clearance to .15mm intake and exhaust. Thanks guys
for all the suggestions. It really helped. It's a great day.

Tune up 101
Amazing what the correct valve lash can do.

Basically when the intake valve lash was 0 compression and exhaust gasses were escaping past the intake valve into the carb
This is what was causing oil to blow into the carb. Mikes engine has that EPA emission system

Just did a 25 hour oil change. Valves both were at .18 got them both back down to .15 could instantly feel the power increase. Fresh oil also makes a big difference as well. Plan to change the valve cover Phillips head screws out to hex heads.

Here's something I suggest doing at least once a week spray some Sea Foam into your carb. Don't spray carb cleaner into it. Carb cleaner should only be used on metal parts in a diaphragm style carb.

I use 25% mystery oil in my mix 25:75 MO/Lucus

Great idea to change out the phillips screws to allen head or hex head bolts!!

Bwahahahaha, fresh oil makes them run better! I do the same after an oil change in my truck. My baby is running better, yeah. We're both pathetic and know the truth.
