Noticed milky oil under blowby tube yesterday. Sounds like a bad HG from what I read in a search.
When parked the truck would only sometimes leave a single drip.
I drained the oil, and it dosent look milky after sitting overnight in a bucket.
Did look a little creamy at the top of dipstick when I pulled it out before dropping the oil.
Heres a pic of what dripped out..... :popc1:
let me know what you think before I start pulling it apart.

Oooooh, that ain't good! Way to milky to be condensation. Has the radiator gone down any?

OK. At this time, it appears to be condensation in the crankcase, coming out through the blowby tube.

Last night I dropped the oil into a 5 gal bucket, let it sit overnight in the heat and transferred it to a different bucket looking for scum at the bottom, nothing found. drained the p-pump of oil, nothing found. drained the oil filter nothing found. Pulled a valve cover, looks normal.

One thing I ommitted from my first post is 3 days ago I got a stage 3 water/meth sys and have gone through about a half gallon of ww fluid getting the newness thrill out of it. What me and my freinds came up with is because of the high amount of moisture pumping into the motor and the warm/cold temps we have been going through here in CT caused excessive condensation out the tube.

I have a make shift catch bottle under the tube now, and will be monitoring the situation over the next few days without using any water/meth and see if the drips subside...

Take care, Jim
