Default I need some help!!!
We just got a Polaris 500 Predator yesterday, and today it started missing really bad, and there was a significant amount of oil in the air filter box. No smoke is coming out of the exhaust. Please help as to what you think it might be!!!

It's an '04, so the motor is broken in. Any idea what it could be?

My first thought was rings but if it's not smoking or blowing oil out the exhaust. I'm stumped.

OK, we found out what it was...We need a new air filter We ran it without it for a few minutes up the road without the air filter, and it ran like a scalded dog, which is more like it.

Hey guys, sorry it took so long to respond. It was a stock filter, but now we have a K&N. The oil in the airbox was because the motor oil was over full, and the overflow tube goes to the airbox. Thanks for all the comments anyway!
