I pull the spark plug on my 2004 Yamaha yz450f and it was full of antifreeze. What should i do next?

I think your block is cracked leaking antifreeze into your engine.. :shrug

Blown headgasket or cracked head/cylinder, either way your getting a non compressible liquid into the combustion chamber.... not a good thing.

not to mention getting atleast 50% water in the oil. Also not good.

Pull that sucker apart and figure out the problem! Make sure you take pictures, too!
