    Does this sound like a clogged crankcase breather? Honda ATC 200

    I took my Honda ATC 200 into the dunes for 2 hours, came down and parked it. I left it for ten minutes came out and there was a puddle of oil on the ground. I noticed the oil was leaking out a little hole on the bottom of the pull start case. Took that apart and tightened the bolts. I then took it back up for 15 minutes. When I shifted into second gear 15 minutes later the trike bogged down and shut off. I looked at the engine and it was smoking (like it was going to start a fire ). Took it back down and oil started leaking out again and the engine smoked for awhile longer with the trike off.

    I am thinking to oil coming out of the pull start is because of a seal/o-ring behind the stator, but no idea why it would bog down and shut off and then smoke? The smoke seemed to be coming from the top of the engine.

    Could this be caused by a clogged crankcase breather?

    Theirs a crank shaft seal behind the recoil cover and if you leaked enough oil out you might have over heated the top end causing the smoke !!!!!!!!!
