having issues with a 2001 srx exhaust filling with fluid.
replaced head gaskets and problem still exists.
heads are in very good shape. no cracks.
sled only has 2,000 miles on it.
 

Is that gas or antifreeze? If gas your float needles aren't sealing properly. If Anti freeze you have a head gasket issue.
 
might need to pull the plugs and pressurize the cooling system and look through the spark plug holes/ exh with a scope to see where it is leaking. other way is to use a black light and dye. might have a pinhole in a cylinder wall.
 
i thought at first it was antifreeze so i pulled the heads replaced the o rings and still having the issue.
it smells like gas but looks like it has coolant in it. i plan to pull the carbs tonight and give them a good cleaning.
