Re: Oil in Coolant

How about doing a compression test on each cylinder to rule out the head gasket issue. Also, take notice to what your exhaust looks like when you fire up the car. Black smoke is rich. Which is likely to happen while start up or reving. Clear exhaust is good. Excessive moisture can be a flag but can also be from condensation. Blue smoke is oil. Stand outside of the car and have someone else start it and rev it up a tiny bit. If both of these test check out. Verify that it is in fact oil you are seeing.
Its possible to pick up oil in a large variety of ways. Knock off some simple test and move forward. With the compression test you can know if you are dropping compression and when you pull off the heads carefully you should see the damage immediatly. GotoGod

Re: Oil in Coolant

I really don't believe it has anything to do with a head gasket. My experience has been that if it's a head gasket, warped head, etc, then you get water or coolant in the oil, not oil in the coolant. Also there is a loss of perfomance due to low compression. None of this is the case. There is no black, blue or white smoke, the car runs clean. There is no deposits at all in the tail pipes, just clean as the day it was purchased.

I'm begining to think that it's not a problem with anything other than the coolant system had been contaminated not internally but........ somehow...... as all oil levels (engine, trany, supercharger) remain at the same levels.
