sludge coming off of...

Post by bdiesel570 »

I guess its a bit of black oil it looks like coming off the engine block to the exhaust pipe, it isn't overwhelming but im at the 300 mile mark and im just noticing it happen, I have to make an appt to get it serviced.

I don't like the local place around here tho so im being lax about it. Any suggestions?

The unburned oil residue at the pipe to cylinder junction is rather common for any two stroke and it is unlikely you would ever get a perfect seal at that point.

Not much of a cause for concern IMO.
