2007 Arctic Cat 400 Smoking

[mudpro124]

i have a artic 400 that has been setting up for approx. a year or so. when i parked it, it ran fine and never had any serious problems until now. it has approx. 900 miles on it. i just recently pulled it out and began riding again. it has now began to smoke alot. just wondering if i need to go ahead and have the top rebuilt or any suggestions.

well it could be several problems from sitting.... i fuel can be bad .. but that wont cause it to smoke very much...,the seales on the valves can be cracked and worn ... the rings can be worn or stuck some what in the groves on the piston from sitting causeing the smoking... if the air filter is very dirty it can cause it to suck oil from the crank case an smoke also... i wouls check the easy things to fix first then go from there ...

How many miles have you ran it after you got it out of storage? I would do an oil change and as CK suggested drain and refil the fuel. 900 Miles is still young in its life for a rebuild unless it was under water or there was a crack in your intake boot.

The color of the smoke (and maybe smell) would help troubleshooting.
