Why is my PIAGGIO 633823 consuming excessive oil and producing exhaust smoke?

Excessive oil consumption and exhaust smoke in your PIAGGIO Scooter can stem from several issues. It could be due to incorrect valve adjustment, in which case you should adjust the valve clearance properly. Overheated valves may require removing the head and valves, followed by grinding or replacement. Misshapen or worn valve seats necessitate replacing the head assembly. Other potential causes include a worn cylinder (replace the piston cylinder assembly or piston rings), worn or broken piston rings (replace the piston cylinder unit or just the piston rings), oil leaks (check and replace gaskets or restore the coupling seal), a worn valve oil guard (replace it), or worn valve guides (check and replace the head unit if required).
