    hi guys
    just wondering if anybody could help me my 2000 wr250 has a wet spark plug.
    I've taken the plug out and when i kick it over water splashes out of the spark plug hole why would this be happening? What can i do.

    You took in some water from a creek crossing or large puddle....? What does the "water" smell like? Do you know if the bike has regular coolant in it or just water with an additive? Check the level in your rads if you know you didnt take one a large amount of water while riding. With the plug off, keeping kicking until theres no more water coming out and then go to the air intake/air filter and make sure thats dry. Once its all dry, put a fresh spark plug in and see if she starts-after you verify you DO have coolant ;)

    Please stop posting the same question over and over.

    We need some more information. Water shouldn't be in the cylinder. You say it smells like fuel, is it water or is it fuel? Because water doesn't smell like fuel.

    Water can't get into an engine many ways. It can get it if you suck it in during a creek crossing, or it can get in from the cooling system (but then it's not water, it's coolant). Did you do a creek crossing? Is it coolant? Is it fuel? How much is there?

    the reason your water smells like fuel is because of where it just was
    a 2 stroke has residual fuel and oil in the bottom end, so expect that

    now about other questions, are your radiators full?
    did you wash your bike and get water in the pipe?
    did you do a creek crossing?
    did you pressure wash it without looking where the water was going?
