hey guys and gals. i am having a little problem with my honda rubicon. it is an 07 with under 1000km's on it. anyway we went to chump lake about 2 weeks ago and i havent had time to unload the quad since then until today. i started it just fine but noticed little puffs of black smoke when it was idling. it idled great and when i went to move it, it sputtered and coughed out black smoke. making noises like popping and running like crap. i checked the oil, it is good, i checked the airbox and it is fine too. i didnt swamp it or anything and it ran great when we rode. how can almost 2 weeks on a trialer cuase it to blow smoke? and it isnt blue smoke.
