Lumina 98 3.8 L Cooling water...

Hi,

our Lumina have things in the Cooling water, its like white mud.
Is that normal? The last change was couple of years ago...
Oh before I change the water it was blue now we add red one...

We did change the water but its coming back, can it be that was the rest?

Re: Lumina 98 3.8 L Cooling water...

is it thick and slimy? if so, it is oil.white-tan is usually motor oil,pink is ATF. with any luck it's just an oil cooler in the radiator and not a head or intake gasket.

Re: Lumina 98 3.8 L Cooling water...

i would take it out and clean it. see if it does it again. it may be something simple. maybe some kind of residue created from back pressure...
