blown head gasket...plain text

[rick@brubakerbox.com (Rick Alexander)]

I agree with John Erickson, just moisture. The engine needs to run at temp
for a while to boil it off. That is one of the reasons you have an oil
cooler (misnomer). The "oil cooler" actually warms the oil when you first
start up so that it comes to temp quicker. The faster you can get any engine
up to temp the better.Your owners manual says not to warm the car up but to
get in and drive. This is also to get it hot quickly. I'm not a betting man
but I'd wager that you work less than 10 miles from home. Try leaving early
and do errands or go sight seeing on the way to work and back.
