oil and coolant trading places... overheating too

[jasonlee]

well, my first though... when i saw oil in my coolant, and crap in my head.. was head gasket... even though ive got a mls head gasket, and an o'ringed block... so i pulled the head of today... the gasket looks fine! wtf!

my next thoughts are possibly the stock oil cooler (the one on the adapter that runs coolant through it) went bad?

i dunno.. this sux!

what do you think?

What's with your profile?

well if you pulled the head and everything seemed fine, i would check the stock coolant/oil cooler. could have a bad seal.

If you tighten the oil filter to hard on the oil filter housing you could crush the cooler and it would leak coolant into your oil.
