Re: Coolant in Oil

Have you had problems starting the car lately? That can wash down the cylinder walls and get gas in the oil. I would change the oil and see if it comes back. If it does, then headgasket is most likely, but follow the checks Scheides said.

I actually did have a problem with the car starting a few weeks back, but this definately looks like coolant to me, there seems to be a slight green tint to it and it doesnt really smell like gas. I guess I will dump the oil and see where it goes from there.
