I flushed my coolant system today and there was a lot of oil in the coolant. I checked the oil and there is no sign of coolant. Could it be the head gasket? I am afraid it might be a cracked head. There is no drop in engine performance or any white smoke coming from the exhaust and the coolant level is always right on. Any suggestions would be great.
Not sure, maybe A woman got ahold of it and put oil in the coolant. Otherwise I would just Fill the coolant back up and keep an eye on it. if it is running fine I would not worry about it for now.
In theory, you probably would also have coolant mixing with the engine oil which can generate a milky type consistency (similar to my buddy's 289 V-8 did).
I'd check the tip of the dipstick regularly till your next oil change.
