Just like an old car or truck PCV valve.

PCV = Positive Crankcase Ventilation

Basically any gasses that blow-by the piston rings into the crank case need a place to go. So the PCV valve (one-way check valve) let the gasses out but doesn't allow any in. Usually a hose runs from PCV valve to breather and sent back into combustion chamber. 

Since the gasses are in the crankcase some oil may be pulled up as well.

Or it could be something else. Just a thought. Home this helps and good luck with the repair.

I apologize to all who I left scratching their heads about my last post !!

Turns out to be fuel diluted oil coming from the breather.  I’ll be taking the carburetor off AGAIN !!!

Jim,

Have you checked oil level in engine? Does it smell like gas? If overful it could be sucked by the breather back to carb.

I was hoping you would respond. 
It was definitely gas infused and slightly over full. Took the carb off and changed the float and needle valve.  Reworked the fuel solenoid.  I have it running pretty well now but was having the issue with the blow back.

Merry Christmas to you and yours !

WX is keeping me in the house for now.  One thing that was obvious from the start is the exhaust has to be reconfigured to fit the machine. Search around the local marketplaces. 
I found my Predator on offer up for $100 bucks brand new.

Hi Jim,

Merry Christmas to you and yours also,

I saw somewhere you can order flange with stub out for that engine. You might weld flex hose onto stub and run it wherever you have to. If i see it again i'll post it to you. Wow, where did you see that engine for $100. Might be a scam. check close.

      By Michigan sport.
      I'm sure many of you are aware of Michigan's emergency brake requirement.  I'm wondering if anyone has a good solution. 
      Beyond paying the few fab places $$$$.. I'm curious is there another rear caliper with e brake style that would interchange with slight mods to  the Maverick sport rear mounting bracket?
