2013 Yamaha 350 4x4
so i bought this atv super satisfied but i went into some water that got out of hand quickly ... so after 45 of pulling it out the belt on the ultramatic was slipping but i pulled the plug and lots of water drained out but i was also mixed with grease very gray in color ..... is there anything i should check or do to make sure it is not going to lead to any other problems or anything else i should check
Thanks ahead of time!

It may be fine, but I would pull the clutch/belt cover and do a couple things. I believe your machine has a greased clutch setup. Meaning the primary clutch is full of grease to keep it lubed. The water probably got in that grease and mixed with it. I would pull the belt and clean the sheaves real good with carb cleaner or brake cleaner. This way you know your belt isnt running on a greasy film which would allow slip and faster belt wear. And i would also check the grease in the primary clutch to make sure its not holding water. Might be a good idea to clean it and re-pack it. They also make greasless conversion kits if you wanted to get into that.
Basically, I would say it didnt hurt anything, but if you are a little worried, I would do the things I mentioned above just to be sure it was clean and working correctly.
