toronto,
hey guys, when i check my oil, there is tiny little bubbles on the dipstick, definitely air bubbles.
anyone knwo what this is?
 
is it right when u just got done runnning it?? mine does if i check it like 3 min after shutting my car down.if not..it might be a head gasket problem (from what i have heard)
 
ok the liottle bubbles appear if i check it right away
i just went out again and checked it and there is no bubbles.
good??
 
your fine....take oil and pour it into oil...it foams. it does the same thing in your motor. imagine what that oil goes through..from being tossed, squirted, and then all of a sudden drained back to the bottom. thats normal. nothing to worry about my man. :thumb:
