Recently my car overheated really bad and I ended up having to tow it home cause it wouldn't start. Now I have a new radiator and it's still really hard to start and when I take the spark plugs out they are covered in a milkshake liquid also some of the milkshake came out the exhaust. What is going on do I need to do a rebuild?

Bad coolest seal or rotor housing warpage from the heat.

No way to sugarcoat this one. Catastrophic organ failure.
sorry dude.

Alright thanks for confirming

Also, if you intend to TRY to rebuild that engine, stop trying to run it, pull the motor and get it disassembled and cleaned up as quickly as possible. The milkshake is oil and water in suspension, and if it's running out the tailpipe, it has pooled in the rotor chambers and will quickly rust everything internally.

How many miles are on the engine and how hot did it get? That's as bad as anything I've seen posted here, so don't get your hopes up,...

It got really hot the engine only has 36k miles but the car was sitting for a while before I got it I'm gonna try and get the engine out some time next week. How long will it take to rust.

LongDuck

It's rusting right now. The saying is, "rust never sleeps." It started rusting whenever it got milkshake, so start counting days from then. The sooner the better,

Alright thanks I'm gonna get it out of their tommorow hopefully.

You could try a >>>Hail Mary<<< with alumi-seal and bar's engine repair stop leak.

I recall it was the two part system. The engine would belch out steam when starting. Treating the oil and coolant solved the problem in 2013.

It is a very long shot, but what have you got to lose?

if you don't get out there, pour lots of oil down the carb, and spin the engine by hand a few times. i would pour half a quart or so

the rotors are iron and the seals are iron, so if they get water on them, they just rust solid.
