jonnymcfly Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 New lesson learned today. Just because you got chocolate milk on the dipstick and a little residue under the oil cap. You can't always assume you have a headgasket leak. Could very well be the dipstick weld broke and the dipstick tube came out of the block. Leaking rainwater into the dipstick hole as well as trapping water in the dipstick tube that when you clean it with the dipstick and paper towel you get a 12 inch white worm of lotion consistency chocolate milk. How I learned it . 1. Drain engine oil and find no chocolate milk. 2. Remove oil filter and find no chocolate milk. 3. Pull dipstick and do find chocolate milk. 4. Scratch head and go WTF for 5 mins. 5. Pull up on dipstick tube to find it broke. 6. Clean dipstick tube and reinsert 7. Post on Ratsun.com New lesson learned. 8. wait for rain of awesome responses. 9. 15min later say screw it and got to bed. Quote Link to comment
gearhead Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 milkshake on the oil dipstick is fairly normal condensation and stuff.If you have milkshake on the oil fill cap after running it up to operating temp you have a problem. Quote Link to comment
