[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 10612447, member: 11681"] [B][SIZE="3"] "[COLOR="Red"]GAH[/COLOR] Oil in coolant, but coolant not in oil??"[/SIZE][/B] What is GAH? The oil pressure is going to be higher than the coolant pressure. Any leak would go from higher to lower pressure and not the other way. So you need to find the source of the oil. You say this engine was recently rebuilt, are you able to talk to the re-builder? Why was it rebuilt? Was it a "hurt" engine? Hurt what? Hurt pistons and rings? Was there metal released into the oil? Was the oil cooler replaced or did they try to clean it? Do you have a stand alone external cooler for the automatic transmission or is it combined with one in the radiator? [/QUOTE]
