Time to get some MMO, run that a bit, then do an oil change to flush the gunk out.Welcome to AskCarFolks! This is a subreddit for asking any car related questions you have, AND getting them answered! As you guys mentioned, hopefully it's just water build up or hardened deposits from not running for so long. I would think this rules out head/gasket. Used the mirror attachment to look at head gasket and valves, but nothing stuck out. You can still see the crosshatching on the cylinder walls too. In hindsight, didn't check dipstick, but not too concerned given the numbers.Īlso bought the HF inspection camera and no noticeable damage on piston. Hard to tell if the air noise from the 3% leaks was going out the exhaust, but the stethoscope screwdriver says no. Had valve cover off when I did it, but didn't see any bubbles or feel any air around the springs. No bubbles under radiator cap when doing it. Air definitely wasn't making it's way out of the intake when toggling the throttle body. About 3% on all cylinders except 5% on #3. Leakdown results seemed suspiciously good and I'm not sure how to interpret that. Radiator pressure test was fine per the FSM instructions of pressurize to 10.7 - 14.9 psi and then make sure it holds for at least 10 seconds. Whats the worse that will happen, you'll mess up your already warped head? There are really no additional points where coolant and oil are in the relatively same proximity to each other than what is listed.ĭrain your oil and run it again. ![]() Is there anyway that non-coolant water got it into the engine? Exception: if it froze, it could have happened. You would fry an aluminum head before you cracked your block made out of cast iron. You would have noticed your CHRA going out long before you got to this point.Ĭracked block? Doubt it. Maintenance was painfully neglected on the car. It was also leaking externally on the turbo as well, so I can't rule out that the car had a blown HG as well. It was in the case of the saab 900 I am referring to, which is where I saw this. So much so that your turbo would be rendered inoperable I would think. ****It doesn't look like any seal failure would lead to coolant in oil, but rather just a coolant leak. Water pump seal (internal or between pump and block) ****garrett turbo gt2560r - water and oil cooled What are all of the points that coolant/oil would have a chance to mix? The most common answer would be cracked/warped head or head gasket, but I'm not convinced. ![]() Now to try and figure out how it got there. Failure to get a smooth idle led me to find coolant/oil milkshake mix under the valve cover. Car was fine before starting a turbo install, but sat in a garage for about a year as everything was slowly installed. ![]()
