I took off the valve cover and I saw a creamy substance all over. My car(race car) is kept in the garage. I hadn't fired it up in about a month. Im running torco oil. It is pretty stock and seeing that creamy like substance freaked me out. Cause for concern? what is the cause? I was just put in there about 2 months ago.

 

Is it also in the oil pan? Could just be condensation.

 

Creamy means a bad headgasket. Drop your oil if it looks like milk time to change your head gasket.

 

Let me check the oil pan. I just ran the car at IFO this past weekend. no problems. I will drop the pan and check. The gasket is new. A honda headgasket at that!

 

Not always

If you drop your oil and you have nothing but milk than its most likely a head gasket. Moisture will devolp under the cap but if your oil is white than its more than moisture.

 

yeap, might be worth to change oil run it for few days and see out come(double check precaution before pull apart motor)... i agree with everyone else tho.

 

What kind of fuel do you run?

 

did the car overhead last time that you drive it?

 

91 octane w/ torco additive

 

The head was milled a little and hot tanked and reassembled. The motor I bought from a guy off honda tech a while back. Block was in good condition when head was taken off.
