Why would anti freeze leak from exhaust pipe?

A blown head gasket could allow coolant to enter the combustion chamber from the water jacket. The coolant probably is running out the exhaust on first start-up. More often, you will notice the coolant being pumped out of the overflow as the exhaust gas pressurizes the coolant. You should look for this symptom when the engine warms up. Coolant in the exhaust on start-up and then the coolant overpressure overflow from the expansion tank or radiator happening together is almost sure indication of the head gasket failure.

if i remember correctly..white smoke should mean that your piston rings are leaking oil into the compression chamber...but it just depends on if you have it coming out of the exhaust or if it is just coming from under the car.....in that case you just have oil leaking on the exhaust. in the first case...its gonna mean a complete engine teardown and rebuild.

How do you get the exhaust flaps out of a 2001 Cr125 cylinder?

You first need to remove the side cover at the top of the cylinder on the right side. Once this is removed you will expose the power valves and power valve actuator rod. You will need to remove a cotter pin that holds the actuator rod to the power valve shaft. You can then remove the power valve shaft. The power valves will come out through the exhaust port. It is best to have the cylinder head removed and expansion chamber removed for access. If the shaft wont pull out it is because of carbon build up. You will need to spray the shaft and valves with solvent. The shaft should pull out.
