Sorry guys I know this is RX country but I figure U guys might know. My nytro is puking is oil out into the airbox through the vent hose. WTF is going on. Nearly all the oil tank has emptied into the airbox. The sled worked fine before has not been rolled or even on its side. This is the first snow in 2 weeks and probably the last for this crappy winter. If I bring it into the dealer (2 hours away) my riding time will be shot to hell. Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

sled runs normal. Just came in from check run after I cleaned everything up. Refilled the oil tank and took same short ride. Only some oil (white/water) appeared at the end of the vent hose. Another ride (short) same result/a little watery oil. Third ride longer/harder and just a small amount of watery oil on the end of the vent hose.
After a search here which yeilded some related material and thinking about it. That little black box in the airbox which the vent hose attaches to (water/oil separator) must have froze up and lowed oil to pour out into the airbox. That's the only explanation I can find. Will run her cautiously for the rest of today and report back tonight.
Just my luck LOL at least I have snow now. Oh yeah 4-strokes still rule.
