    Glad that was a simple fix. since that seemed to be the culprit, you may want to consider making a papergasket for the seal there. When you take off the reed cage, you will see the numbers are stamped right on the sealing surface of the block. That is the culprit. Now we need to get you to stop touching your cylinder after you are done riding.:lol:

    Honda paper gaskets will fit the Husky reed cage and are not expensive. Bills put paper gaskets on my 09 WR250 before they shipped it new in the crate

    @ Guy - One of the issues I see happening is with coolant. EngineIce uses water to thin their poly mixture and after that boils off, the poly gets as thick as 140W gear oil. Many of the guys on here remove any restrictions, such as thermostats and switch to XF coolant which will never thicken.
