Picked up this sled, estart starts and runs/ well idles but it seems to be putting out excessive amount of exhaust smoke. I plan on readjusting the pump cable. Heard pull it out of socket and measure somewhere between 19-21 mm, but I suspect the pump if pushing way too much oil. I will pull the plugs to check to see if they are black. I have heard that these era of sleds had oil pump failures, but they at least would go to full capacity?

First starts they all smoke until they are warmed up. could also be a sticky choke. When the pumps go you will tell when they go thru 1 quart in 50 miles.
