OK I am stumped. I first found frothy tan oil sludge in both valve covers and a small bit on the end of the dip stick so I assumed my son (a new driver) got crazy with the pressue washer on the engine. We drained the oil, flushed the engine added new oil and flter and ran it. It stayed clean for about a week then the froth appeared again. I cant figure it out because there is no sign at all of oil in the coolent nor has there been a drop in coolent level Because I have the time and my son needs the experiance we will tear off the heads this weekend and inspect the gaskets and heads. Oh how I hope we find a split gasket because the alternative (cracked head) will effect my sons ability to buy me a decent Christmass gift!! Is it posiable the water pump could transfer oil into the crankcase?
