I decided to fire up the pirate ship today and got it started. I just let it idle for a few minutes and then noticed oil pooling up under the exhaust on the right side. Any ideas? Been sitting for awhile.

Randal is right about oil being places it's not supposed to be.....like a muffler with 4 oz (or so) of oil in it. Clean that puppy out or you'll not be happy with any "fix".
You'll not get it all with cleaning with solvent (or some such) and it will still smoke for a while. |
