Why is there oil in my overflow from radiator?

How can I fix it cheapWhy is there oil in my overflow from radiator?
Usually for a head gasket warp head you get water in the oil. But depending on if the car or truck that has oil a cooler. I seen that oil in the cooling system from the Internal part of the cooler routing out. Hell I sean intake gaskets cause that. there are so many variables that we need more specific information about your car to give you a fair and more acquit answer.Need to know year make model millage have you ever over hearted in the pass etc..


Also if it is the head gasket your oil will look like a nasty looking milk shake. You should stop driving it becuase it will cause more harm to the motor. also if the car is going to sit for a while before its repaired I highly recondmend drain the oil out of the oil pain . coolant is not good for for the crank and rod bearing.Why is there oil in my overflow from radiator?
*PROBABLY* a blown head gasket. Check the oil on the dipstick and see if it is the usual dark brown/blackish color or white/gray. This is further indication of head gasket failure.





It won't be cheap to fix. Head must be removed and planed (resurfaced) as it warped when it overheated and probably won't hold the new head gasket tight enough when reassembled. And to do that, they usually disassemble the valve components in the head. $$$





Sorry, good luck.





PS Don't continue to drive or run the engine because the bearings are not getting the proper lubrication and bigger parts will begin to fail.
that can be one of two things if you ask me. 1 an anti corrosive material added to the radiator. or a blown head gasket, cracked block/head.
What year, make, model, mileage???? Generally, warped head or bad head gasket or both.
IF YOU ARE GETTING OIL IN WITH YOUR WATTER YOUR HEAD GASKET IS BLOWN... WHAT CAR DO YOU HAVE...ME TELL YOU WHAT IT WI IL COST TO PUT RITE!!! YOU CO UD PUT BLOCK SEALER IN THE WATER
