got done riding my r shut it off and white smoke was coming out of the pipe went to start it and wouldnt put new plug in and still wouldnt pulled the plug and coolent was on the plug would it be head gasket? oh and the coolent tank was over full to..

Probably the head gasket. Combustion is pressurizing the coolant system. Hopefully just a head gasket, it could be a cracked sleeve. Take your head off first and take note of how well it is torqued down. You might get lucky and just have to replace the head gasket and torque the head properly. While the head os off set it on something perfectly flat and check for warpage. Good luck.

thanx man i hope its not a cracked sleeve and i ll check the head i have a head gasket on order right now so i hope thats all it needs...

 

[ace72967]

well got it running today could smell the colent burning and the collent jug was bubbling..

Your head gasket as suggested by RK88R could be leaking into the combustion chamber, or you could have another leak coming from the cylinder cooling jackes. Does it bubble as soon as you run the engine or only once it is up to temperature?

just as soon as it starts..

 

[rk88r]

If you're smelling burnt coolant, I wouldn't run it anymore. Pull that head off and inspect.

 

[ace72967]

ya i didnt it only ran for maby 45 sec..

 

[ace72967]

well i took the head off looked in the cylinder didnt see any cracks the head looks good there was 2 copper head gaskets on it the head gasket i ordered will be here on monday so i hope thats all that is wrong with it

 

[acecarlos]

If you still have a leak after you instal a new head gasket, seal it up using Three-Bond, if it still leaks; you will need to get the head & cylinder surfaced flat.
