Today I dove in a pond on my atv. Water went all the way up to the handlebars before it started floating. So I had to push it out of the water and I cranked on it for about fifteen minutes before is started. I had to take the spark plug out, and crank it so it would push water out of the spark plug hole.

So I just wanted to know if there is anything I should do before i ride it again.

Thanks for the advice. Since mine is a 2-stroke, and there is no oil in the bottom of the motor, so do you think there is water in there I should Drain out.
