Coolant in oil what do u think happened?

Post by awdwagon »

Hi


so i just snaped a great deal on a 91 turbo sports sedan and we think it had bad headgaskets so the guy i got it from said he had them done on the car along with a T-belt. at that point with flushing all the fluid and refulling them there was stull coolant in the oil. there for he tore it back down to bare block. Do you guys suspect a cracked block or what thanks.

Ok, is there coolant in the oil now? Meaning, after he did the headgaskets, theres still coolant in the oil?

Could be any number of things between cracked block, warped heads, improper installation of the heads/headgaskets, or even left over coolant in the oil channels....
