Obviously the coolant and oil mixed hence why I was overheating and the blue sludge. It can't be mixing at the head because there is no oil there, so the only other thing must be the water pump seals must be shot and allowed coolant/oil to mix.
Hopefully that is my only problem. Does my diagnosis sound correct? |
Yes, sounds like water pump seal. Cheap and easy fix. Probably the over heating made the seal fail. I just had to replace the seal on my '05. I replaced the seal and then filled the tranny with cheap ATF. Ran the bike up and down the street at low RPM, drained the ATF, and filled with tranny oil. No residual coolant in the tranny at all.
