The engine manual says standard compression is 70-100psi.

Probably low because of the decompression mechanism.

Allright i finaly got my quad back from my friends house and drained the oil. There is a bunch of coolant in the oil from the radiator. When i first took the drain bolt out coolant came out for about a minute straight then the oil started to come out. Is there anything i can tell by this wether its a head gasket or cracked sleeve???

my guess would be cracked sleeve. that would let the coolant flow into the crankcase. doesn't sound good...sad.gif

No ,just pull the engine and get to know it on a personal level. They are fairly easy to work on if you go by the book.
