Hi everyone!
I have an RTV900 with around 3000 hours on it, and it sat for about a year, non-running until I got to it. Changed the oil, filter, transmission oil and filters, starter and ignition switch and it seemed good to go for a few months.
However, an issue recently came up. After driving it for a little bit, it would effectively run away for a few seconds and blow excessive oil out of the exhaust. I checked the oil level, and it seemed extremely overfilled, almost halfway up the dipstick. I let the cart sit over the weekend, and changed the oil this morning to get it to the proper level. It didn't separate at all, so it doesn't seem like it's coolant. The trans is also still full, so I don't think it'd be hydraulic oil either. It seems like the only thing left would be diesel is getting into the crankcase. The cart seems to drive perfectly fine now, but I'd like to fix it before it becomes an issue again. Thank you!
