84 tri moto 125 2 stroke crankshaft seal?

[BiGDawG]

I'm going to look at a 84 tri moto 125 2 stroke later this week may be trading a go kart for it but he say's it smokes a lot.. i know 2 stroke smoke when you first start them but then he said it burns oil and that the crankshaft seal may need replacing so how hard would that be? and anything i should look for i didn't know they made a 125 2 stroke trike lol

Well that guy backed out but i ended up with another 1, run's and ride's but feels like it has a lack of power, pain in the ass to pull start but bump starts easy. gonna start with cleaning the carb and changing the oil, what kind of oil do they use?

Just 10w40 for the trans. I use 10w40 valvoline atv oil and so far ive had no problems
