Well I got a little deep on the Arctic Cat this weekend and sucked some water in the air intake. It did not ever stop running It did not milk the oil but it was a little discolored. I drained the oil and changed it a few times. set her on its tail to make sure no water was in the exaust. pulled the plug turned over motor to clear the cylinder (no water came out). Anything else other than pay more attention the next time you guys can think of? Oh yea changed the air filter also.

3 or 4 oil changes after standing it up and letting it drain will usually do the trick. I would check the differentials also after riding in deep water,you never know when a seal might leak.
