*sigh* water in my oil.... what to do next?
so after getting my car all back together and the new brakes and everything, I took it for a 300 mile test drive. Actually it was the longest trip I've taken in the car. everything went according to plan, nothing broke, or over heated....
But when i checked my oil I noticed on the filler cap (and I've seen it before) and on the dip stick a white substance in the oil. Now I'm assuming this is from water, but could it be coolant? or some something else? It it's coolant does this mean my motor is on the way out? I also notice a constant coolant burning smell, but i think it's coolant sitting on the tray from changing the upper hose. Although even after the trip up highway one I can still smell it.
