I was checking my oil last week and i took the oil cap off and 2 my suprize there was some kind of water sludge type funk in the cap.... I pulled the deep stick and i can see very small oil water seperation on the stick...My firt thought was intake manifold gasket, but i dont think water runs through it...And im sure it could be a head gasket...any help ??? 98 Z LS1 180,000 miles

Well i did the same thing last weekend, turns out (so everyone says), its just condensation that builds up in the crankcase. No biggie

Thanks man! Dont put a breather on it. I THOUGHT THE SAME THING! but everyone says that it will create unmetered pressure in the crankcase. I was scared to death when i first saw my sludge, i was like holy hell i blew a head gasket, but im not using any coolant, and i cant smell anything.

Warm air holds more moisture than cold air. So when your car cools down this time of year the water has to come out. That's why I change my oil everytime the seasons change. 4 per year. If that's too often then at least every Spring and be sure to go into the Winter with new oil. Regardless of miles since last change.

Someone told me if you take a lot of short trips, it wont go away, you have to take it on a long drive to clear it out.
