New here with a question. I rolled my rancher a few times off a river bank and it landed on top of me. After someone got it off of me we left it on its right side till next morning because I was in the hospital. Got on it today, a week later and now it smokes really bad. Is this normal I had the oil changed and still smokes blue/whit smoke??? Any answers?

You say you rolled it a few times off a river bank, did it end up in the river?

my question would be, when you drained the oil, HOW Much oil came out?

being left on its side, oil could have drained into the exhaust and you have a LOT in there now smoking off, and or could start a fire if enough is in there on you!
HOW Long did you leave it on all 4's again BEFORE you drained the oil too


Glad your OK, too, thing happen

but sounds like you just got oil in places it shouldn;t be from sitting on its side
once it burns off or?? should be OK!
Might want to replace plug soon and then again after it stops smoking on you!

Glad you are ok. Have you checked to make sure it isn't overfilled with oil in the crankcase? Proper oil for wet clutches in it? Any oil drain into the airbox while on its side...?

I don't know these atv's that well but on the motorcycles oil can run up the valve cover breather hose and flood the air box with oil when upside down. So check the filter.
