Hey guys, any mechanics in the forum?
I found water/coolant in my oil and quite a bit of white goop in the oil cap.
I do not think I have driven the truck for more than 25 miles with this problem .(2.5 miles to work). Had to add coolant but found no leaks so i thought, oh no!!
The coolant in the radiator looks clean, the truck runs fine no steam coming out of the
tail pipe no overheating (hard to tell when you only drive it 2.5 miles to work), just kidding,
I had it idling for i good while the other day and the needle never got past the middle of the temp. gauge or a little below that. I pulled the plugs and they all look fine.
I think there is good amount of coolant getting in the oil ( about a half quart overfilled)
before I do a compression test I wanted your input.
I have a 1989 Dodge Dakota with a 3.9 engine.
Blown head gasket? Intake gasket? Time to junk it?
Thank you for any info or advise.
