Title: oil in radiator Post by: moetstockie on December 01, 2015, 08:59:39 PM Folks
I have a little oil in radiator water but no water in my oil. 138 grey motor FE wagon. Ideas on what the problem could be?

But oil in the water only , that would infer its coming in under pressure . Like a blown head gasket , cracked or corroded head . Have you checked the spark plugs for signs of water or after it cools after a long run does it run rough on start up? Anyway you look at it ,not good news .Haydn
