1998 YAMAHA BIG BEAR 350 4WD-burning oil after change


dctaz37

Recommended Posts

I recently replaced the oil in my ATV and now I smell oil burning which it didn't before. I used automotive 10w30 full synthetic. I used the same oil on the previous oil change without issue. I had researched the oil before to decide if I needed to pay up for ATV oil and there were many posts that stated automotive synthetic oil would be fine. Now I'm not sure what to do. The only thing I did different this time was replace the filter cartridge rather than clean it and I believe it was the same brand of oil.

      Hey I have a 1997 big bear 350 4x4
      I replaced the shifter shaft and the shift arm linkage and the rod when I installed them all I was unaware that you had to line the dot on the shifter shaft with the gap on the linkage arm gap put it all back  together and rode it I can't get it to shift in the right gears  I can move the shift cam by hand and goes in different gears but with the shifter shaft in it riding I can't put it in R or N 
      Anyone know how to line up the shifter shaft and the shift cam s

      I have a 2016 Arctic Cat 500 and recently noticed some oil leaking on the engine block to the right of the oil filter. It's near two metal lines going in and out of the engine block. I think one of the lines is called an engine oil line. I have a photo I'm going to try and attach. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to start tearing into the engine if I don't have to. I think maybe a gasket or something blew around one of these lines. The ATV runs fine otherwise. Doesn't overheat or anything.
