i occasionally submerine my quad

but last time it was accidental lets just say i almost lost it. got quite a bit of water in the oil it actually over flowed and came out the crank case vent into the airbox. whatever i load it up take it home change the oil like 4-5 times now and the filter 3 times. yes i run it a lil while let it get warm them drain it again but everytime it still looks milky. where is the water trapped and how do i get it out? i need to go riding. thanks in advance

tip for everyone who drowns their quad. use diesel on the stock oil filter after each oil drain til it clears up, and a new one is installed. this was how i was able to clear mine up,just pouring alil diesel in the oil filter to clean it.
