What besides the head gasket could leak to cause water to get in the oil?

Thanks

 

the head gasket won't leak water into the oil.

1- cylinder base gasket, or
2- in an extreme case someone cheap & stupid plugged the weep hole for the water pump(instead of fixing it right) having a bad water pump seal and it eventually forced itself through the oil seal as well.

 

I second that. I had to rebuild my waterpump because of the sae issue. Have you done a top end latley?-RR[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Yes, i just rebuilt the top end.bored out the cylinder,new piston an rings,head an base gasket.As soon as you start the quad you can see the water going down in the radiator.I have never rebuilt the water pump is there alot to it?

 

the water is leaking into the antifreze by the water pump, change your oil seal and your mechanical seal inbehind the impeller. Go to www.ronnies.com and look up oem parts for Lt250R and go to water pump schematic and it will show u which is wich and u can buy the seal there to. let me know how u make out
