Hey gang,
I hail from from Manitoba, Canada.

This spring, I picked up a little ATC110 (1982) from a local fellow. It smoked pretty bad, but I flew into doing a ring job with some of the great videos online (SoCal Bruce has a great teardown/rebuild that I would have been lost without).

My trike ran great without smoking for a couple of weeks, but now it won't start and the exhaust port is always filling with oil. I've tried searching the forums but haven't seen too much in this regard so am reaching out for advice from anyone willing to provide it.

Anyhow, thanks for allowing me to join and look forward to hearing some good stories!

Cheers,
Randy

Welcome. My first guess would be the valve seals/guides need to be replaced.

So am I to assume that nobody else sees oil in the port where the valve clearance gets adjusted? I was beginning to think that oil in there was unavoidable given that the engine sits sideways in the frame.
