Ssangyong Musso 320 Auto: Vechile suddenly overheated. Coolant was pushing out of reservoir. Checked oil...it was full and looked good. Engined cooled down...filled reservior with water and drove for another 40 km in evening to reach home. Temperature gage was halfway all the way. No problems. Next morning drove to work, but halfway suddenly oil started to rush out under the car. Lost about all the oil. Checked the thermostat and when I opened it there was a very large amount of light brownish slug in it. Reservior also smells oil and had oil on surface. (engine oil?). Tow the car back home. The engine still sounds good. Checked oil again...no sign of water in oil. Why the overheating? What caused oil in cooling system? Help please!
