Sorry to further stray from topic, but I just posted about this last week, and it was determined that the green is <img border="0" alt="[kaboom]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bomb.gif" /> for an all aluminum motor. Look for my post a week or two ago and look at the responses. Very imformative stuff.

The oil is "airrated". Man, I have NO idea how to spell that. Basically the oil has been swirreled around a bunc with air by the time it gets in the catchcan. You get alot of condensation like this. I don't thinkt he oil and water are mixing in the motor.

Yeah, I get the same thing in my Greddy too. I think most of it is from burning off condensation in the crankcase, it gets released through the PCV and the can catches most of it. Normally it would just be burned by the motor.

It's not coolant. It must be water from condensation.I can't believe there would be this much after having the can on for 3 weeks. Very little oil in there. I've heard that aluminum motors are known for condensation but WOW!

My antifreeze is green. I imagine it is that color because of it coming from the inside of the motor or something . It is defintely not glycol cause I tasted it! (Yeesh!) There is no taste to it. Your right it does look like beer and I had to subdue the urge to chug it! <img border="0" alt="[chug]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />
