water in dipstick?
hey guys, i was hoping for some guidance.
So i changed my water pump about two weeks
ago because it cracked(2000v6 camaro). then i noticed
there was still a small leak. i ignored it as it was tiny.
turns out it was leaking near a bolt of the waterpump.
i checked the leak with my finger and it was thick and looked
like water/oil,, well it just dried off and hasnt been leaking much.
just recently ive been noticing my car has been consuming
the radiator water... i checked my oil dipstick. and although
the oil looks thick and full i see a lightshade of thin possible
water in there.. the car runs great and it doesnt overheat.
and there is no sign of oil in my radiator..any ideas?
Thanks in advanced

sounds like front cover gasket is not sealing. be a good time to change timing chain. better get it fixed. change the oil. you don't want antifreeze in the oil or you will be replacing the engine soon.
