Coolant In Oil ...

RE: Coolant In Oil ...
Right now its prob about 25% water 75% coolant.
Also, I just pulled two plugs and they look fine. Should I pull all of them and check or is one or two OK? I also checked pretty good for leaks around the heads and didnt see anything leaking. I also checked my res to make sure that wasnt it and its not... that looks fine also. PLEASE, Im standing by my computer waiting to go check for something. Is there anything else that I can do to help determine what my problem is? Thanks alot guys.
So far I have:
Checked plugs - OKAY
Checked for Leaks - So far OK

I always look under my filler cap for a heavy film, it should be clean. My monte carlo blew a intake gasket, was losing coolant, didn't notice it in the oil, but I was losing coolant, saw the film under the cap and knew. Drained oil in it wis in there, came out first. I don't know anout synthetic oils and water mixing, but I know with regualr oil it will turn milky and thick. Look under the cap and into the fill hole.

i say head gasket. Check your exhaust for traces of white smoke or a sweet/coolant smell. If it's just a small leak, you won't notice performance issues. Also, check for signs of leakage around your headers....it can blow it out the exhaust sometimes.

put new oil in it and drain it again
if its not clearish like fresh oil then u blew a HG
i drained oil on a jeep that went off-roading alot and like mentioned.. it really did look like a chocolate milkshake.
its night and day difference between the colors

50stanger: I looked under filler cap... everything looks normal.
gspfunk: I started up the car and ran it for a few mintues than revved it a few times... no smoke and no sweet smell. Also, I looked VERY hard for any signs of coolant comming out of the headers and seen nothing. No leaks, no spots, etc. NOTHING.
Also, when I drained the oil it did NOT look milky. It just looked like it had a green tint to it. Like I said before, the only thing thats making me think that something is wrong with my car is because of the green tint in the oil and plus me loosing coolant like crazy lately.
Am I just being paranoid over nothing ??? Is it possible that RP just has a green tint to it after its burnt? You never know since the oil is purple to begin with and doesnt smell like normal oil comming right out of the bottle lol

It's possible...
Stupid question, but have you looked for signs of leaks on the ground? Bottom line is the coolant has to be going somewhere unless the coolant gnome is sucking it dry at night
