      Hello everyone

      I need advice.
      I own Hyosung GV 250, year 2005, without EFI.
      I have a strange problem that the oil level in the engine is slowly rising.
      After about 100-200 kilometers after the oil replacement, the oil level in the engine is already rising so much that the oil control window is already completely filled.

      Did anyone already have a similar problem? What could be the cause and how to eliminate it ?

      That is indeed very strange.

      To confirm this,  get a bucket that has  0.5 , 1.0 , 1.5 , 2.0L markers inside.

      Drain the oil and see how much is drained off.

      If it is 1.5L exactly , it should be OK because there is no other place engine can get more oil without Rider adding more inside 😉

      However, if it is 1.8L , then it is OK as that is max level the whole engine consumes  (because of left over oil from crank , stator , flywheel , clutch , oil cooler, valve head….sometimes not all of the oil is drained away)  thats why korea says put 1.5L next time you service bike or 1.6L max if you also change oil filter.

      Also change oil filter now to be on safe side.

      I have already changed the oil and the oil filter, but the problem remains.

      I suspect that gasoline would slowly come into the oil because there is no other fluids in the engine.

      That would also be correct.  It would cause hydro locking issues and many issues like soon replacing pistons, crank , cylinder heads etc….

      Oil will smell of fuel.

      This means carb floats need changing / adjusting  ,  change float seats (because they jammed and allow fuel in to cylinders when bike is off) , change float seat needles , and finally look at investigating the tank tap and also fuel pump , if you have doubts, its cheaper to replace all fuel parts i mentioned than rebuild an engine 🙂
