Sup utv dudes, newbie in AZ desert! I have a ceased 250cc motor, I'm wondering if there is any way to get it moving without spending a lot of money. Maybe pull it apart oil everything and put it back together (white trash logic)? Or do I have to get new rings?

Welll, depends on what is seized, if the rings are toast, most likely that means the connecting rod and crank bearings weren't getting oiled either.

it's not a 2 stroke is it?

I would start with the piston.

Fill the cylinder with diesel fuel and let it sit for about 5 days. Usually what I do is use a wooden dowel and small hammer and tap the piston lightly repeatedly.  If that doesn't free it up i'd tear it down and see what needs replaced in the bottom end.

      MSU 700 Oil Burning
      By Chile
      2018 Massimo 700 MSU. The machine started burning oil all of a sudden. One day fine-- next morning burning oil. Looking for advice. Do I pull the engine to inspect the top end or can it be done with the engine in place? Pro? Cons?
      Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated in advance.

      Oil change
      By Joe Breaux
      Decided to do an oil change on the Massimo ...drained oil, screen was very clean even tho oil wasn't.  Then went to remove old filter.. holy crap ..I tried every tool I have, could not budge it..Went to store and got one of the end cap type..fit nice and tight, put a 1/2 in drive ratchet on it..nope..not moving.  Put a 18 on breaker bar o. It. The inside of the removal tool broke off!!  Had to weld it back together. Put a pipe on the bar for more leverage.  Finally broke it loose..
      I have never seen a filter in my 55 yrs of working on engines so tight..And i was the one who put it on 2 yrs ago.  JUST HAND TIGHT!

      2022 t-boss 760 oil filter
      By Aaron Colona
      Just bought a brand new 760 about a month ago. I'm at 20 hours which the book says is when you need to change the break in oil. 
       
      I must be crazy, but I can't find the oil filter. I've googled a million videos...everything seems to be 2019 or lower...and/or a 550.  They all show the filter easily seen by looking in past the rear passenger tire on the engine. There is absolutely nothing there on mine. 
       
      1.there seems to be very little info if you Google a 760, or anything Massimo newer than like 2019. 
       
      2. Does anyone have a current model year 760 that can answer my riddle for me?
