How do you turn down the oil mixture? Or how do you by pass the automatic oiler? My scoot is up and running again but still smoking like crazy. Think its running to rich. Any ideas anyone?

Are you using the correct oil?
Maybe your rings are shot?
Have you done a compression check?
One of my scooters smokes more that the others.
Let us know what happens...

Clean the muffler. My bet is that its burning excess oil thats accumulated in the muffler.
