oil level with 6" lift
 

Hi everyone,
Just wondering about the oil level in my g9, it has a 6" lift and I'm wondering if there is any special consideration needed because of the increased angle of the swing arm. I noticed some of you make brackets to lower swing arm. Is that required? Also, big thanks to Skoal for air box.

Change oil and add exactly one quart and remark the dip stick

Sorry if this is what is called high jacking a thread but it seems relevant to me .
I am dealing with smoking g2. It does have a 6” lift and I have read above that too much oil can cause it to smoke .
I just added 1 qt. Of royal purple 10w30.
The strange thing is that the cart smokes after idling for about 4 minutes .
It burns clean at start up .
Is it possible that the used muffler I bought has deposits in it that when heated up smoke ?
Or do you think that I need to remove some oil?
Additionally, forgive my ignorance with motors. I located what appeared to me to be. Pcv valve which was gummed up with white oily film. The lines going to it were also clogged so I cleaned up everything and the one way pcv valve seems to work.
I am unsure of the carts history. It runs like a champ but I would like to stop the smoking before camping season starts!
Any advice is certainly appreciated .
Thx in advance
Chris

It very well could be the used muffler get a hot fire going and toss it into the fire if it has oil in it it will burn it off
