I just burnt my sled up today do to oil pump going south. (9400+) miles. Do they hert the crank to bad when they burn up do to no oil. After it died I restarted it for less than 30 sec then towed in. The clutch side is white the center and right is a like a lite coco color. I am all most positive that it is all oil pump malfunction. Before the burn down I have riden it 125 miles and used the corect amount of oil and the plugs had looked rich before this.

x2! Oil pumps usually run wide open when they crap out
Yes, and they usually affect all cylinders at the same time. White is lean.

Snow in the cylinder is not good....water tends to burn the cylinder down.
