See my profile....Yes this is a symptom of bad HG or warped head causing bad HG (water mixing in oil, white goop)......Maybe fortunatly it is also a symptom of PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) system not operating correctly (removing bad vapors from crankcase).....See if/ replace PCV if not sucking vacumm properly......look for disconnected PCV vac. line.......dirty PCV Filter usually found in air cleaner (older stuff)

Take your rig to a shop and have cooling system pressure tested ($$$) to see if Head Gasket is leaking.........high / tech school Auto-mechanics Shop Class can maybe do this for you (call 1st).......they like to show off their stuff!(maybe NO $$$)

Love, Turddog
