Mates wants to know, why his Lifan 140 is smokey on startup?
it last for about 30 seconds, its white/grey smoke, its not steam etc cause it hangs around like smoke, and doesnt fade quickly like steam,
motor has done less than 15 hours, about 2 weeks ago he pulled done the top end to check for a tap he had, turned out to be the timing chain wheel,
but the past week its now smokey on startup,
rings were rotated 180 when installed, ring gaps checked (.02) piston - bore clearance checked, bore still had original hone marks,
any thoughts?
