2015 800 Pro burning to much oil

[snowrider 151]

When I am idling It appears to be smoking where more than my other 2015 Pro. There is a very definite difference in the amount of smoke. Any thoughts???? THANKS

Does it burn more oil than the other 15 in the same day?

Monitor the amount it uses, as mentioned, before assuming it is using too much. There really is no such thing as too much when it comes to oil and 2-strokes. Performance doesn't suffer until you hit 20:1. Your smoky sled likely uses half that or less.

Smoke at idle, especially when not warmed up is not a good indicator of oil consumption.

I agree! My '15 800 smokes very little at idle compared to my '14 600, but they both use roughly the same when I measured over 2 tanks (give or take) of fuel. Both right at 35-38:1. I'm happy!
