Hi new to TGB ATV and curious anyones thoughts of problem having .. I have Blade 1000 as in my name haha.. Well I got it used and found gas smell in oil crankcase so replaced oil filter and oil .. Seemed ok for a while now its back at it again .. I know can be possibly several things but also not familiar with the Air intake on this unit.. When replaced Air filter top tank is somewhat ok but lower area of tank under filter lower section looks to be gas in puddle of  bottom of tank .. Otherwise runs fine and the level in bottom doesn't seem to change so thinking its normal but sloshes around I think getting gas on the air filter.

Thank you.... :) yea I figured some would be normal getting bit of oil and gas in airbox but gas in the crankcase oil is perplexing.
