Was given a Yamaha 250 Timberwolf. The guy said he thought the engine was blown. However
after talking with him some more what he described sounded like a blown head gasket.
Description was " It was using a quart of oil per day, then while out riding it began to smoke a lot,
afterwards it lost power and died". I'm a small engine mechanic! and this description fits with blown
head gasket. Any thoughts on this?
I recently replaced all top end gaskets and seals on my 2005 Arctic Cat 500 (FIS Manual) and after about a month of smooth riding, I took it out for some heavier riding. It ran fine for a good four or five hours straight yesterday and I cranked it today and it's blowing antifreeze out of my tailpipe. What could be the cause of these blown gaskets?
