today I was adding oil to my car...as I open the cap..I see some white thing at the pipe...look's like sperm mix with water.....someoen told me is because the engine cooler went in to the egine..and mixed with the engine oil..that's why there is these white things comeing out from where I add engine oil...but my car still run's O.K....they told me I should get a new motor...what should I do? keeping dirveing it untl it die? or do something about it? (1989 Turbo ll)

Get a compression check to verify your motors condition. Does the motor blow white smoke under acceleration or deceleration?

the RPM will go's up to 3000 rpm...than a bomp sound...it drop's down to 2000 than 1000 than engine will shut off...I have to give some gas ever time it drops..

It could also just be condensation getting past your oil filler cap and mixing with the oil. I had something similar and was all worried like you are. To me it looked like snot - pardon my vulgarity but that is what it looked like. This is what happens when water mixes with oil. Check your oil dipstick. If this same stuff is at the bottom of the dipstick down by the fill marks you probably have a water jacket problem that fc3s.org is talking about. If the oil at the bottom looks normal then it's probably just condensation from having a hot engine on a cool day. On my car this snot was on the oil filler cap and the top part of the oil filler tube as well as the top part of the oil dipstick. But the oil on the bottom of the stick was nice and clear like it should be. This was last fall and my car is still perfectly healthy. Hope this helps.

Mine looked like gizzim from some STD infected wanger, or perhaps a bad nasal infection, topped with whipped cream. Course I know that motors bad, it blows smoke over 7k and for a minute or so on startup. I really need a 12a so I dont have to use my TII as a daily driver...

my firend got a 88 Turbo ll.....and he told me the tempture level shouldn't be at the middle...it should be cooler than that..like 1/4 from the cool to hot.....you know when you start your car...your car always cool.....than the tempture will rise up to the middle...but he said that's not normal...the tempture should be alittle lower than middle.....is that ture? or it just he's 88 turbo?
I dirve a 89 turbo...

my '89 TII runs just over half on temp, runs fine, I am goin to get an aftermarket water temp gauge and exhaust temp and such

Here's how the gauges work: Cold, Normal, Too late.

87-88 T2 should run at 1/4 gauge normal op temp.
89-91 T2 should run at 1/2 gauge normal op temp.

Hope that helps you out, your running normal, but an aftermarket gauge is always a good idea.
