wr400 rebuild, coolant in head and oil, will run tho

[chewy619]

ok big head scratcher here.  rebuilt me wr400, new piston and rings, new gaskets and everything.  this is where things go sideways.  bike won't run at all but will burp n fart.  took the head pipe off and there was coolant in it, enough that you could pour it out.  thought it was the head gasket, but i triple checked the torque on the bolts and they were 35 pounds.  once I checked the oil from it looks to have coolant in it as well.  the bike will start with no coolant in it, I just tried it to make sure I wasn't crazy and that the bike was still good, never ran it for more then 30 seconds with no coolant.  is there a chance I have a bad head gasket new?  or do I have a crack somewhere in the head or the cylinder causing the issue.  if anyone has had this happen let me know and lets see if there is a fix for this

Have you checked both surfaces are 100% flat and true which meet with your head gasket,there are a few ways you can do this by yourself to get an idea if anything is suspect.

have a look at this,it may help!
