Sunchaser, you are letting him off way too easy! We want a training session on how to properly identify water in oil please! Pictures and everything!!!
Cheap scotch and cigar would be considered in your sentencing.....
Glad you found it.....
Sometimes the hope is that since it is the internet trouble shooting suggestions are wrong. Here is another thought - engine oil has additives/emulsifiers that help the base stock to entrain moisture. Possibly that is why a clear water oil separation cannot be easily discerned by Windmist. Hopefully whatever goo is or was in the oil was removed via an oil change over a week ago.
No training session required but I can say that I changed my emulsified engine oil 5 times in two days as I was troubleshooting water in the engine oil. It turned out to be a bad after cooler. Bypassing the faulty cooler allowed me to travel another 600 miles without incident to have the new AC installed.
The engine survived unscathed. The curse and blessings of today's emission compliant engines ----
