Ok, here is the deal. I have a '90 Renix rig. I just put a '93 HO, head on it, and installed new injectors. Verified the torque settings on the head bolts and have run it now for about 500 miles. I have checked the oil every 100 miles or so and it has always checked out clear. At the same time, I have been keeping an eye on the coolant level and it hasn't moved, even a little.
So, I check it today and there is a slight white layer at the bottom of the dip stick. Coolant level is the same, I took off the oil fill cap and there is no sign of emulsified oil under the valve cover that I can see, so I am kinda stumped. The only thing I can think of is I recently took it through a car wash. Other than that I dunno what could be the source of the moisture.
Will gas in the oil cause emulsification? Could it be a bad injector? The only thing that would cause me to think its not the injectors is that the idle is super smooth. No hiccups or skips, just smooth, and I don't think there is a leak from the coolant to the cylinders. Cause there is no white smoke in the exhaust typical of burning off glycol.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
