So I got my tow thing settle an I can afford to keep my car but I noticed that I'm getting some coolant in my oil I bought it after it sat since 2006 an drove it home 150 miles before I had to tow cus the alternator gave we jumped it a few times an had to ride high Rpms to get it closer to home my pressure seemed fine on the dash an it never overheated so I'm not sure what it is an Ive never done motor work on one if these my cousin who's helping me has done some small work to his old one but i was wondering if there's anything else other than head gasket it could be so I don't fix something that's not broke its a 1986 n/a

 

Ouch. Can't think of anything but head gasket - but I can be wrong. Let's see if any of the guys here have a better idea.

Fortunately, good gasket kits are still avail and not expensive. Your car is worth it.

 

If you have coolant in the oil DO NOT continue to drive it. It's likely a head gasket. Coolant in the oil will damage the rod and crankshaft bearings in short order leading to catastrophic engine failure

 

It's in the garage I haven't been driven it but I noticed it's not in the oil cap when it's warm outside but in ohio it's like10 degrees we had one 45 day an it was fine could it just be the head gaskets just old
