Just plain thinking

bkzap · Nov 18, 2012

I was outside yesterday looking at my Allis Chalmers. The thing that got me thinking was when I looked at the oil dipsick. I had what looked like a light brown oil.It did not look like soup but it was a light foammy oil look.It looked like I blown a head gasket. Then I started to think of the last time I did engine work which was in 1995. What could cause a blown head engine gasket. Well Just plain thinking again.

Probably just condensation from light use?

When I farmed with a small fleet of old AC's, EVERYONE'S oil was milky every morning all summer. Condensation it seems. If you check the oil again at lunch time, and it cleared up...well, don't fix something that ain't broke..

any other symptoms ?. you may not have extracted all the old oil last time.
Take the sump plug out a tad and check the first discharge for water.Sometimes seen a light foam on the radiator cap.
