Re: Water in the Oil
We ran the engine last night for about twenty minutes with newspaper under the motor.
There were no oil leaks and no water entered the oil. The oil level never raised and the oil stayed a nice pretty honey color.
Oil pressure was about 50 pounds and the temp stayed right around 160.
I'm thinking that this may have been a one time water ingestion due to the unusual operating conditions shortly before the problem manifested itself. I'll let Scott describe that since I wasn't there.
