Problem with viper

check your oil pump cable near the carbs , the cable has Joint there , my gueass would be that the cable is not in its boot all the way and your oil pump is wide open . just follow the cable from the bars and you will see where the cable has what looks like a rubbler boot on it . the cable splits there . make sure that is all put back together , because if you pulled the air box out , i would bet that cable is not set all the way in the boot and the pump is open to far ......that would explain the excess oil .. just a thought ...good look
 
Probabily carb floats!

You probaily need your carb floats adjusted. I had mine stick before on previous sleds and everytime you start it, it will throw about a cup or two of raw gas out the end of the pipe and onto the floor.

Thats what it does, Makes a pretty big puddle on the ground!
 
Well I changed the plugs and put some new gas in it and its still doing the same thing, We ran it on the grass and it still has its power didnt lose any of it...You guys think because its so warm out its running rich?? When we ran it there was smoke coming off the grass where the oil landed.
 
did ya check the pump cable ??? also when a oil pump fails it fails wide open so you dont burn them up ...

No, It has seemed to stop after running it around the grass for awhile...But The plugs are like a brownish color...dont this mean its running to hot?? Which could very well be because im running it on grass.
 
A Hot Plug Will Be A Grey Or White Color , You Want A Light Brown (cardboard) Look To Them , But Thats When You Get To Riding Temps ... Just By The Amount Of Smoke Your Talking , I Would Check The Cable ..
