Oil in coolant bottle and i already spent $1,200 trying to fix this.Please HELP!

[95EclipseGST]

Last week my timing jumped 2 teeth and i thought thats why oil was getting in my coolant.Well, i took it to mitsu dealer and had them put on a new timing belt and get everything back in timing.I thought the timing being off, might have been the reason oil got in coolant and the car was consuming a lot of oil.But they flushed it all out and did the timing belt job.I thought i was good to go beside them telling me my ISC was bad.So $300 later i got a new isc and had that put in cause my car was idling at 2500 with my brand new BISS all the way in.The new isc simmered it a little bit ,but still idles at 2000 with biss all the way in and timing at 5 degrees btdc where the dealer put it.Well today i notice smoke still coming out between shifts and oil made its way back into the coolant overflow bottle and car still eating oil like crazy.Im stuck and this is getting expensive. Im in this over $1,200. Please tell me every way that oil can make its way into coolant,so i can strike this down.Also it sounds like a have an exhaust leak around the manifold area. Could a bent valve do this? What about the oil cooler? Please read into these symptoms and help me.Im very frustrated and need help baldy. The car runs like ass and doesnt boost until higher rpms.This is on my new 6bolt and im dyin over here.Please help.I have my vacuum lines and egr removed and set up as per the taboospeedshop diagram,if this matters. Thank you for helping me.

Oil in the coolant eh? Headgasket anyone? Check compression, that will tell you a lot.

Compression is fine in all cylinders. Could bent valves do this? Or a headgasket that only leaks under high boost ,therefore not showing on a compression test?Oil is in the coolant but no coolant in the oil.The oil is just getting lost to the coolant.Could this be bent valves? Thanks for helping.

If you had bent valves it would show up on the compression test. Bent valves would not even do this. There is no point in the engines cycle when coolant goes in the combustion chamber, so it would never see a valve. Does the car overheat, or hold good temps?

Car holds good temps and thats why im puzzled.I can still go WOT and engine temps stay as normal.Mitsu is retorqing the head today but he said even a leak down test showed nothing,but torqing them anyway.But they said my water pump was whining and needs a new one.Could it get through anywhere near the water pump? So a new water pump today along with retorqing heads and replacing exhaust manifold gasket and DP gasket.Anyway after that havent i pretty much narrowed it down to being the oil cooler if it still has this problem after this? Im into this for $900 today and $1200 the other day with the timing belt and isc.Any other possibilities other than head gasket or oil cooler? Thanks for the help.Im shipping the car out overseas tomorrow and didnt have time to fix this myself.After today ,any oil in the coolant bottle i would be on my own when the car gets to Italy. Im open to any possibilities cause if it still have problems when i ship it out i will not be able to stop thinking about it for the whole time till it gets to Italy and all that money spent and still not fix the problems.Thanks

do you know what cilinder it is mixing in?

I have a 1990 laser with the air- oil cooler. I heard that some later years have a water- oil cooler. One that uses the coolant as the heat sinc. Check to make sure that something is not wrong there. i have read here that if the oil filter is screwed on too tight. something warps, and oil contaminates the coolant supply. Just a thought. Do a search and see what comes up. I have read here that people have had the same problem, and the water oil cooler was the problem. Do a search to be sure.

My last purchase besides a new head,is to get an oil cooler if satan cant fix it today.They said a compression test and a leak test was good.Also something to note is that it takes about a week from a clean coolant system for it to get very oily again after every day driving. A leak test would have showed if a head gasket was bad but they are torqing the head bolts anyway.I will probably get an oil cooler from them when i get the car today just in case.I sure hope its not a cracked head.Could bad turbo seals introduce coolant into the system whatsoever?

only 90's had that oil cooler.... and how much oil is in youre overflow bottle?
this happened to me when ir ran bone dry, all the sludge was juss sitting in there for the last 12 years or whatever, put coolant in, and thought I blew my headgasket cause it was mirky as hell...
check that option to

Well they said my head gasket did need a little tightening and the exhaust leaks are fixed.They cleaned out the coolant system but i seem to have more oil in there but then again they said it might need to be flushed a few times.The car seems to run great now except it is still blowing smoke between shifts and eating a quart of oil very quickly.So a turbo CAN introduce oil into the coolant? My turbo has no shaft play but doesnt seem to spin a lot with the finger sort of tight but still turns smoothly and has no shaft play.Im not going to mitsu anymore after this,im on my own.My next step is to just replace the new evo turbo and do trial and elimination on a very expensive basis.Unless mitsu lied to me about a full leak down test. Who knows, I just want it to stop eating oil and blowing smoke when i shift.It doesnt do that any other time,on startup or revving or anything.
