Coolant leak into engine

Hi,

If the coolant is getting into the engine / mixing with engine oil, that is usually caused by a failed head gasket.

Do me a favor. Take a look through this link and let me know if it helps and what you find.

I have been afraid that it might be a blown gasket? The only reason I believed it might be something else is became I can drive it 200 miles and it doesn’t run hot? It doe’s loose coolant but that’s all it?

Is there any evidence of white smoke from the exhaust? Do any of the other symptoms listed in the aforementioned link mirror what you are seeing?

If you are losing coolant, the next thing I would suggest is to check engine compression to determine if there are one or more cylinders that are weak. Also, the spark plugs may have a grayish powdery appearance on the ground strap.

Here is a link that explains how to perform the compression test:

Let me know what you find.

Take care
