coolant in the oil just put the motor in
The motor is a d15b bottom end with a z6 head. I lookedf at the dip stick today and its milky. I know i had a fan problem but at no point did i get into the red with this thing. the car hasnt even been driven 10 miles. The other day i noticed coolant in the box that my pcv valve goes into could i have attached the pcv accidently to a coolant line? I just dont get it this damn swap has caused me problems from day one on getting the motor.

I've never heard of this problem before. I think you could accidentally installed some lines into the wrong area.
Recheck everything again.

I'd change the oil immediately, it might not do any harm now, but from what I'm guessing, if it's there too long it can cause damage to your motor. I'd risk changing new oil than having problems overnight.

Re: coolant in the oil just put the motor in
can anyone figure this out the manifold isnt a ex manifold but looks like one it has obd1 sensors in it so it must be an si manifold from a 92-95 . The line that is connected to the pcv is located on the near the throttle body there are 2 medium sized nipples . looks like some type of acutator is right above them would both of these nipples be indeed coolant lines?

it comes off the top of the intake. It runs through the runners underneath your intake. It has like a plastic piece that fixes it to the the hole in the intake mani.

Re: coolant in the oil just put the motor in
i see an open line on the back of the manifold if your looking it it from the intake manifold side instead of the header side it would be on the left top sort of. Is this the correct line i should attach the pcv valve line to cause its a small line fitting on it seems like i would get a vacuum leak.

take a pic man. Find your "black" box on the passanger side of the oil filter. attach a hose to the top of that where you pcv comes off of it and run it into your intake mani
