A few years ago, back from San Diego, truck filled with smoke. Pulled over. Cooled down. Changed oil right there. Drove into Phoenix. Had radiator repaired.
I am thinking that a small crack is "somewhere" allowing water/ coolant into engine. The oil dipstick is rusted. White frothy substance around top of oil cap.
Can I add an aluminum treatment to radiator to stop water from getting into oil.
Still runs OK though. But I don't drive more than a mile or 2 in town. Change oil every 1000 miles.
Is there a test for leakage of this kind. Truck has some value other than cash.
Thanks
