Today i was riding my '87 LT250R i was letting it idle then when i began to accelerate i heard a loud clicking noisecoming fromthe engine then a few seconds later i pulled in the clutch and the engine died I pulled over and tried to kick it but it wouldn`t turnover. there is coolant and transmission oil in it. i had been riding it somewhat hard for about 2 hours before this happened. i mixed the gas at 44:1 with synthetic oil. This is the same ratio and brand of oil that i have always been running it at. it seems like the engine siezed but i don't know how this would have happened. it hasn't had a top end job in a while if that is any help. if any of you know what may have happened i will appriciate any information on what may have happened.

you cannot compress coolant, if you drain your oil it should free up. But now the issue is why is the antifreeze or coolant in you engine. This is my very problem. Today it did the same to me again after an hour of riding. I know a head gasket would let the coolant in, but too me if the head is that warm the cooling system isnt working, impeller on pump? or if it is not the head gasket could it be leaking in some where of the water pump? Also is there such thing as too much air relating with this problem?? please help
