I looked at the oil today and there is a little bit of water in it, milky spots. I was told it probably is the head gasket but my question is, If the head gasket was bad wouldnt that make the car overheat? It will sit there at normal running temp for about 5 or 10 min before it shuts off. I've never had a car do anything like this so any help us greatly appreciated.

this happened to me 2 months ago, my car overheated after putting water into it, so i shut it off right away and checked my oil, i had very little milky spots and i knew then i blew a headgasket, make sure when u get ur headgasket changed get arp headstuds and make sure too shave the head just in case to see if u damaged the surface!

that has allot of current running thru it and it GETS HOT AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING try it

my lag is your courtesy head start
ATTENTION.... installing a head gasket, head studs or pistons and rods in your otherwise STOCK engine dose not make it a "built" engine! stop listing you cars for sale saying they are built when its not!!
