hey everyone im dan and new to the forum and heres my first question....

My water pump broke on my yz 125 which caused my anti-freeze to leak into my clutch and else where. i drained all the fluids, replaced the water pump and filled her back up. i road my bike for about 10 to 20 min. and as i was about a mile away from my house the bike stalled and i couldnt get it started again so i pushed the damn thing back and when i got back home i noticed a white milkey thich substance comming from the motors over flow hose.is this a mix of antifreeze and oil??? and also would this cause my bike not to start thanks

It's a mixture of oil and water. Drain the case and flush with a thin oil. Replace with recommended oil and also replace the plug. Should start right up. I would change the oil a few times over the next couple of rides.

i just drained my oil and it is pure white? could it be that the seal on the water pump isnt fixed or is it possible that that water did turn it all white?

That white substance is a mixture of boild water and oil blended by your gearbox.
Your pump's seals needs to be replaced and probably the pump's shuft. The bike shouldn't have stall, what probably happened is that all water or most of it went in your engine and none of it left for cooling the bike, and since the white thing came out of the overflow hose thats probably the case (the bike staled from overheating) . You should inspect your top end .

our yz iner seal on the topend was leaking and we seen waterspots on the spark plug so we took off the head and the engin was filled.

Make shure you look in your pipe becouse ours was filled with antifreeze.
