Lui Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Hi folks, I have a Thunderbird Storm, 2011 & I’ve changed the engine oil and it smells of petrol, has anybody else experienced this issue? All comments gratefully received. Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All comments gratefully received. Many thanks. Sorry old chap, we all have 4 wheeled Triumphs. You need to find a motorbike forum. As to oil smelling of petrol, means some it getting past the rings, likely from overfuelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glang Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Yes although any high mileage oil will tend to pick up a smell of petrol or also if only run for short distances. I would change it, give it a good thrash and have a sniff again after a few thousand miles... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
