milky radiator water Tue, 29 July 2003 04:30 Go to next message
a milky white stuff in my radiator water is from oil leaking into it right?
would that mean my Headgasket is blown ? and if so how long is it safe to drive with this condition?

Almost definatly a head gasket or if the car hasnt been driven for ages that ca cause it. i have driven a car with a similar problem for ages. It just means the longer you wait the more cance to make more damage.

Yeah most probably Head Gasket

in regards to how long u can drive, that Depends how badly its blown

and as purple said the longer u drive the more damage it does

and it can also warp the head

My Fiancee's 80 Corolla had a similar problem where Electrolysis had eaten between the water channel and the oil channel in the head crossing the two. Required some welding fresh metal into the head, but ran great afterwards :0)
