ORIGINAL: dont33zel

what color is the coolant usaully suppose to be...mine i look at it once it was like yellowish green...but i havent looked at it lately....or the oil....
The coolant should be see-thru, it should not be milky. The oil should look like oil, not chocolate milk. Maybe you should check them.

If the head gasket is bad, you should be low on oil or coolant and they should look like ****.
