[QUOTE="viking20, post: 982877, member: 33877"] You need to look at the bottom rod bearing , see if there is any up-down play in the rod , or if the rod moves roughly around the bearing. If so , you will have to split the cases , and install a rod kit or a new crank , and preferrably new main bearings and seals. The head gasket area on the cylinder head will look like you describe , if pure water is used as coolant. The correct mix of anti-freeze and water is not just recommended because of lowtemperature riding , but because the antifreeze prevents corrosion inside the engine. This is the case if the chipping is visible around the waterholes in the head. If its around the combustion chamber , the head gasket has been leaking coolant into the chamber. The milky looking gear oil , can be because of condensation of the oil ( probably not where you live !) , or the seal on the waterpump axle allows coolant to be mixed with the oil , as said earlier....
