Antifreeze in exhaust?

[1shot1yote]

Just got back from the Horns. Sled ran great the whole time it's an 04 800 has about 500 on rebuild. The last day it started smoking when I started it and smelled like antifreeze. Sometimes the temp light would flash for a few seconds after starting it but then seemed fine. Any thoughts on where to start first? I'm thinking check the head gasket first.

Thanks
Justin

More than likely a head o-ring if its burning antifreeze

O rings in head not good to run with leak had a rod bearing go bad right after anti-freeze leak, thinking it washed oil off rod bearing.

check your o rings, I lost one before and it will take out your rod bearing, coolant is very abrasive
