Watery Oil. ...Hot Coolent Temps !!!hELP
Recently ...Ive changed my oil about 4 times in the last month due to turbo kit blah blah blah stuff not fitting . So ..the kit is gone ...I had a small oil leak I fied tonight as I drained my oil it was very watery, but looks just as new as the day I put it in. Can anyone explain why this is happening ? My coolent gauge temp seems to also be showing half way up (a little hotter than should be). Any ideas why it just runs so hot ? I would think a thermostat would make it run waaaay hot or waaay cold. Doesnt change when the heat is turned on or off. Any ideas on both these problems guys ?

Ooohhh...I'm afraid to tell you it may be a crack in the block or head...hopefully it's a blown head gasket. I'd check that first. Any sweet smell like radiator fluid or white smoke coming from the exhaust? Good luck dude.

No smoke or anything ...The coolent is still green ..Its runs like a SOHC should I guess. Still gets great gas miliage etc ...Could it running Half way up the temp gauge for along time break down the vecosity of the oil ?? Or am i just a retard and hoping ?

hopefully it's not a cracked head. that happend to me when i overheated. cost me 400 bucks. had milky like spots in the oil and such. i'd advise you not to drive it too much, cuz if you're getting coolant in your oil, it's gonna wear out your bearings. and if that happens, you'll be putting a new motor in like me

The oil looks as if its brand new ...I really dont know ...Plus are new also and they look fine last time checked. Im gonna be hopeful and try my thermostat for my heating problem and as for the oil I guess time will tell. I hope not soon though I gotta get to work some how .
