I use 10W 40 Honda Motorcycle oil in my dirtbike and it started smoking Affair. What oil can I use ment for motorcycles that wont burn?

 

[freakboy]

Is it a 2 stroke or 4 if its two there isnt anything you can to about that and it means its working. if its 4 and smoking try draining a little oil out of it or run it at idle for a while see if the smoke goes away. monitor it closely dont wana burn anything up.

Used to use 10-40 in my Briggs 2HP's. Nothing bad happened.

Tyler, i had a suzuki dr100 (4 stroke) and i used 10-40 in it, thats what it called for, it did smoke a little, but that was because the cylinder was scored.

Not recommended by B&S
Tecumseh manuals specifically state do not use 10w40. Reasons are obvious.

ENGINE OIL
TECUMSEH FOUR CYCLE ENGINES REQUIRE THE USE OF A CLEAN, HIGH QUALITY DETERGENT
OIL. Be sure original container is marked: A.P.I. service "SF" thru "SJ" or "CD".
TECUMSEH RECOMMENDS USING ONE OF THE FOLLOWING FOUR CYCLE OILS THAT ARE SPECIALLY
FORMULATED TO TECUMSEH SPECIFICATIONS.
DO NOT USE SAE10W40 OIL.

This is not to say that some manufacturers do recommend it.
If they do, then by all means, use it.

Awesome! I put in the best oil suited for my engine! If I want to drive my minibike in -20 degree weather no worries!

 

[Affair_driven]

I question why anyone would want to use anything but the recommended oil.

 

[freakboy]

some times you are to lazy to get the recomended stuff and u got it layin around.

 

[Affair_driven]

some times you are to lazy

I am not, sir.

 

[freakboy]

then some times you dont have a ride to get it lol. or dont wana pay for gas to get to town 30 miles away just to get a oil for something that you have a oil close to it.

 

[Affair_driven]

Nearest service station is 30 miles away?
Why not just stock up on it?
2 or 3 qts. would last the summer.

 

[freakboy]

i live in the middle of no were and i always have the right oil im sayin someone might just be to lazy to. and the oil for my freinds gokart that he used is recomended i think it has to do with the 93 octain it recomends i think ima bring him some 10w30 when i go over next to see if it works better.

 

[porsche930dude]

[freakboy]
