Hey every one this is my first post so please beare whith me. I have an 03 400 and it smokes all the time. definitly oil smoke. compression test showed 140 psi which should be fine. I just put in a new oil pump metal gasket and oil pump seal, the one that looks like 3 o rings attached to eachother. I found that the clutch cover was warped. it had a high spot right where the oil lines enter. so i lapped it and it fits well now. Nothing registers on the dipstick. all the oil is running into the crank case and i am assuming that is why it is smoking. because the crank is over full. oh yeah I also cleaned the strainer in the case. any help would be a great help. thanks

your suppose to let it warm up for 5 mins before you check the oil and your valves could be bad or adjusted wrong cuaseing smoke or it could need... new rings
