Hey guys whats up? So i posted awhile ago about when my blaster started smoking and asked for suggestions of what might have happened well just this week i got the ambition to take it off the quad and tear it down myelf lol. And it took me a bit to get it torn apart because the person that had it before me stripped the top end bolts so i gott a get new ones but i finally got it apart today and found its nothing major, Just that the bottom of my piston is broken.
 
A broken piston skirt is major. You will need to split the cases to make sure the broken skirt didn't bust through the crankcase.

/\/\ that and flush all the shrapnel from the bottom end and bearings or they'll be next to go
 
If you have a broke skirt and a smoking problem then you almost definitally have atleast a fracture in your cases if not worse. Time to tear it all the way down and inspect.
