Hi everybody, great place here.
I just purchased a 57 235 from a pickup, complete, got it running on the ground,ran a compression check,150 psi across the board, great so far. I pulled the dipstick and the oil was milky,it looked ok before I ran it but I did not tap the drain plug first, so I dropped it and put in new oil. I ran it about 10 or 15 minutes and put about 2 quarts of water in the oil again. now the part I dont understand, I put 150# air pressure in each cylinder and I dont get one bubble from the thermostat housing (thermostat removed). What am I missing? where else besides head, gasket, or cylinder can water get to the oil? Is there hope here or do I have another anchor for that 50 footer I've always wanted? thanks
