Just had an overhaul of machine, was leaking anti freeze out of drain tube in bottom of motor. Complete gasket change....anti freeze still flowing out of tube from motor once it heats up....any suggestions, has anyone had this same problem, is it possible it could still be air bound?

Will run for 10-15 minutes before it starts blowing anti freeze

My 97 400 did this but it would run out and at half throttle spew. What happened was I did not replace the head studs and two of them stretched and would torque to specs but after it got warm it would blow compression through the water jacket. So I replaced all the studs hade to heat two of them up with a pocket torch to remove them and replaced the gasket and all is good.

      I just bought a 1984 Suzuki LT185 ATV and am looking for the OWNER’S manual. ( not a service manual) 
      I contacted Suzuki Canada but they have no paper or digital copies in their archives. 
      Does anyone possibly have a digital copy they’d be willing to share?

      Guys, I've got a 1999 Honda Foreman 450S.  It runs great, but smokes out the exhaust after startup until it warms up.  I'm thinking the valve seals are leaking.  I was wondering if there is a way to replace them without removing the head or if there's an oil additive that will recondition the rubber seals.  Any advice?
