Hi all,
I have a family member who owns an 1983 Caprice (305 V8) that began
using coolant.
I couldn�t find any external leaks, then checked the oil, it was milky
in appearance and the level was over full indicating coolant getting into
the oil and pan.
Now what?
I don�t know if it�s a head gasket, cracked casting somewhere, or
what.
I'm sure there are a multitude of places for a leak to develop.
It could be a simple gasket problem or something more severe.
I don�t have a clue as to how to diagnose this problem.
Even if I tear the thing down, I wonder if I'll see any indications of
where the leak is coming from.
And, what could be the extent of engine damage with this thing being driven
a couple weeks with watered down oil.
Any suggestions would be appreciated on how to find the leak.
As always thanks for your expertise.
