OIL Problem

Hello everyone!!

Just have a quick question on my 1993 RX7 twin turbo????

I've notice that after 1,000 miles on an oil change,

when you open the oil cap, I see some white liquid around the cap and where you pour in the oil!!!

The white stuff are like kind of thick and looks like some kind of thick foam!!! Plus it looks like some kind of water cause it drips like water???

Any answer will help?? Thanks

It's just condensation mixed with oil and happens when you don't drive the car for long periods of time... i.e., the engine never gets hot enough to boil off all the water. It's normal and nothing to worry about.

I am humbled by your link skills mahjik.

You managed to demonstrate the answer to his question while subtly showing him the search feature and even more subtly show that this question has not only been asked but answered almost 2 years ago. No wonder you are a mod!!!
