Hey got my brothers old bike here. The oils coming out white.. rode it and changed it 2 times after that still has grey oil . I was thinkin he just dropped it in the creek again but its not commin out normal so im thinkin I need to change the head gaskets. I get em and about to rip it down but Im not sure if theres somthing with the oil that I dont know about like its holding old oil somewhere.and mixing with the new oil im putting in.. Any one got a manual downloaded.. that could send it to me?? My Email Is Wickedbadretard@gmail.com Im out of ideas and I need it this weekend for a memorial ride we are having for him and gonna just tear it apart if no one knows any easyier ideas

Maybe try changing it a coupel more times and see what happens??

I dunno if there is 2 oil plugs or anything, but if it did go into water running, it'll take at least 3-4 oil changes to get most hte water out

When my friend dumped his quad in a river, after 3 oil changes there was still a little bit of water coming out

edit: btw if you aren't already, just use the cheapest damn oil you can for cleaning it out.. Rotella, or supertech or somthin
