You got water in the oil, it turned to a white emulsion, and now your engine is toast????

Only you can answer that, but IMO...it would be better to get a different ATV. As I agree with the previous post...your engine is toast. Probably cracked the block or something like that.

Have you changed your oil since going in the water? Check your coolant levels...and for contaminants.
