I have oil in my coolant!!! Its not just a drop or two either... 5 minutes down the road grey smoke just pours in the cab and out of the exhaust. My only guess is the head gasket is either off a bit or bad. Any other ideas???

sure sounds like a bad headgasket... good luck with it.

 

I agree...sounds like a headgasket.

Sure way to tell for sure (if the oil in the coolant isn't enough):
When the engine is cool, take the radiator cap off and start the car...if your headgasket is blown, coolant will shoot out the radiator (have a hose handy to rinse the car/engine off)....if no coolant shoots out, you may have a different problem.

Good luck

 

Definitely hands down the HG.

 

Alright, thanks for the input. I figure while its down, I'll take it to the shop and get started blueprinting and building it. Thanks again.

 

get a honda factory head gasket. i just picked one up and they are quality stuff. only 32 bucks for a y8 gasket! that is a deal in my book. rocks
