You're not getting the oil out of the oil cooler. There must be water in there. Keep changing it.
Where you at in the Windy?
I was born & raised in Cicero.

The water takes a liitle to get out once you get it in there. When you sank it originally was it bad? I mean was the oil white or just light brown? Did you have so much water in the motor that it changed the oil level? As in overfull? And did you change the oil at least 4 times changing the oil filter with a new one 3 times?
When you change your filters on a Honda you can let them dry out for future flushes, that is if you have chronic engeine flooding like I did.

brilliant! forgot about the oil cooler. i'll keep cycling oil and filters. yes it was very swamped with water-my bad. good now save for the water/oil deal.
i am in naperville, south-west suburb of chicago-farther out than cicero. know cicero though, worked in north riverside for a while. get this way, let me know-we'll hook-up.
thanks, takes a load off my mind knowing it'll clear up.

My daughter lives in Darien (she is BlackRose on this board) with her mom, my sister lives in Naperville, I lived in Downers Grove and Aurora and my parents live in Cicero still! Good luck with the quad.
