water in oil

[jessews6]

i have an ls1 that seems to have a little water in the oil. can anyone give me any ideas where to start as far as the cause may be to the problem.

need a better idea as to how much, how long has the car sat and so forth. how you discovered this as well, but most likely its a head gasket. Check the rad for oil in the water.

Yepp I agree, could be something simnple like condensation or a little worse "head gasket"...

Get a cooling system pressure tester (they rent them as many auto parts store, such as Advance) and pressure test the system. That way you know where to start.

hey thanks guys ill try testing the cooling system and see how that goes. i notest the problem when i pulled the dip stick and seen that it was a little milky at the very tip of the dip stick. i also just got the oil changed about 5 or 6 days ago. i use the car as a day to day driver. if yall have any more ideas please let me know.

Let us know as soon as you find out! But it doesn't sound good! My guess is the head gasket!

check your coolant and see what it looks like.....has the car been overheated or anything? Reason I ask is I rarely ever here of someone popping a head gasket on these things. Matter of fact I would probably exhaust ever other possibility before thinking head gasket.

[jessews6]

i have had the car for over a year and no over heating.

Figure it out quick because coolant in the oil will ruin bearings fast.......
