Default Polaris Genesis 2001 SMOKES Alot While Running, Still Runs Strong. Any Ideas?

Hey,

I have Polaris 2001 Genesis 4 Seater that runs strong but smokes a ton in the engine compartment... Someone suggested spark plugs but it didn't help.

Could this be an engine rebuild, exhaust leak, over primed? This model does have oil injection right?

Any advice to move forward with it appreciated. If it is a simple exhaust leak or over priming it should be pretty easy I think to fix..

If it needs an engine rebuild what do you think a rough cost estimate would be? And how much do you think I can get on Craigslist for it. It's a beast but just has all this smoke...

What should I check/troubleshoot next?

Thanks

I would check all your exhaust connections first. If its running OK thats probably what it is.
