Oil in my Radiator?

Check your power steering pump. See if it's overfull and looks like it's been pukeing some fluid. The power steering cooler is in the upper radiator hose if equiped. They fail a lot. Usually the coolant goes to the pump but can't hurt to check it also.

^^^^^ There you go ^^^^^
Should have called them 1st...
Like some have said. Bet it is going to be in the power steering or if you have an auto it could be a carck in your radiator. If your trans fluid looks Pink quit driving it, you will burn it up
