Car Forum / GMC Cars / February 2006Dexcool is oily
When I did cleanup of some drops spilled on the ground, I surprisingly know the Dexcool coolant is so oily. How can we tell if any engine oil gets into coolant tank due to head gasket leak? Both are oil... > When I did cleanup of some drops spilled on the ground, I surprisingly know > the Dexcool coolant is so oily.

Dave yeah and if there is oil in the antifreeze, it will foam also. >> When I did cleanup of some drops spilled on the ground, I surprisingly > know [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Dave > When I did cleanup of some drops spilled on the ground, I surprisingly know > the Dexcool coolant is so oily.

You can put a drop or a shotglass of Dexcool into water and it should integrate. If it floats, you have an issue. Thanks. So this must be a reliable and easy way to check if oil in coolant from head gasket leak. >> When I did cleanup of some drops spilled on the ground, I surprisingly > know [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > of Dexcool into water and it should integrate.
