Please help me i have a 2009 ktm 525xc so i used to dd 20w50 castrol yesterday i added 25w60 castrol and now there is blue smoke constantly coming out of the exhaust what do you think please? and what do you suggest I do?
Hell yeahhh im change the 25w60How was it running? Any other issues with the motor? How many hours? There are a few different things it could be. Burning excessive oil, oil getting past rings, etc. It may just be the that new oil you put in her. I would probably start by first draining that oil out and filling it back up with the stuff you were running before or another fully synthetic 10/40 or 15/50. I wouldn’t go heavier than 20/50. Another option is a good semi synthetic diesel oil like Rotella T4 15/40. Change oil and run it and see if that fixes the smoke issue. If not, then do a compression and or a leak/down test on the motor.
If you are truly worried that your motor is damaged then do the compression and leak down test first.

My first thought is that oil is probably too thick and is being sent up the crankcase breather and being sucked into the combustion chamber with the intake air.
that's exactly what i'm thinking tooMy first thought is that oil is probably too thick and is being sent up the crankcase breather and being sucked into the combustion chamber with the intake air.
So whats ur suggest ??that's exactly what i'm thinking too
The only time i have had it smoke was when i filled it to full. Might check that first. I use the Rottela thinking 5w-40 but not sure. I have had good luck with it and is reasonable priced. Do a search there have been conversations on what oil everyone uses. RichHell yeahhh im change the 25w60

Me di cuenta de que si lleno la mirilla hasta la mitad hay una ligera disminución en la potencia y obtendré un poco de humo en mi 450xc. Recuerdo publicaciones cuando lo recibí por primera vez diciendo lo mismo.
Definitivamente revisa el nivel. Corro 10-50 amsoil. Mucho bosque corriendo, vi temperaturas más frías después de cambiar. El 10-50 también es más fácil de arrancar que el 20-50 que corrí antes, que también tenía temperaturas más bajas que el 10-40 anterior.

Benos días amigos bueno yo tengo un 525 xc con un poco pistón a 97 mm con 12.5:1 de compresión y árbol de leva +1 bueno hice todo esto porque mi motor se había perdido compresión y usaba 10w 40 sintético.. cada vez q le hacía el cambio de aceite encontré más residuos de metal en los filtros y luego q desarme el motor y hice está modificaciones desidia cambiar mi aceite a un 20w 50 mineral y los cambios en el motor han Sido exelente no he tenido más desgaste ni reciduos en los filtros si he notado q el aceite cuando lo cambio sale es más oscuros pero eso es causa de q es mineral... Hice este cambio porq acá en panamá el clima es muy caliente lo q ago pues s cuando arranco espero unos 3 minutos el motor en baja y me doy unos 5 minutos rodando la suave hasta q le empieze a dar más gas y gas gas por lo tanto he tenido mejores beneficios
