First of all I am talking about a buddy of mine's Honda 250R quad. He's a pro racer and has a race this weekend. Sorry for asking about a quad engine but this is not necessarily quad specific, just 250 2 stroke specific, so hopefully someone can help. He has just had the head ported and he pressure tested it after he got it back. Everything checks out. The head gasket is good and the head has been torqued down to spec. This is what happens: When he first starts it after it has been running, white smoke comes out of the exhaust apparently from water getting in the head. It stops after a few seconds. Also after he shuts it off, it looks like steam comes out the exhaust. It also smells like antifreeze. His antifreeze level has not dropped enough to notice.
How could water just be getting in the head? Head gasket has been replaced twice. This has everyone here stumped. Anyone have any ideas?
Apologies for the engine being in a quad, I just thought if anyone had answers, the folks here would. If this is not appropriate I apologize again. Thanks for any help.
