Dear Forum members,

Last sunday I've joined a local ralley with my engines including the Kubota.
In the morning the Kubota was running perfect without any issues.

Issue unburned oil out of exhaust Kubota KND3 20160916

However in the afternoon it started to drip (unburned) oil from the exhaust.
Therefore I decided to stop the engine to avoid further problems.
I've made only short runs (10-15 minutes max) up till now and this issue didn't occur

Surprisingly the engine did not smoke and seems to have enough compression.
Only when the engine is just started there is some grey smoke visible.
This disapears after a few seconds.
 
Any ideas or tips before I dismantle the engine?

Best regards,

Steef Pronk

Hello John,

Thanks for your reply.
See my today's post in chapter projects/ restaurations.
It seems there is an issue (seems a broken oilpumpshaft)

The engine in the middle is a German Sachs Stamo 50 engine.
a 2 stroke petrol engine. (1963).
Can you please post a picture of your Pranafa engine?

Best regards,

Steef Pronk
