What would cause me to find oil in my radiator? The motor is an Thompson Motorsports motor and is still under warranty. Any idea's?

Internal radiator oil cooler..., cracked block..., head gasket..., any number of things. No water in crankcase?

No water in the crankcase, looks good, oil is nice and clean.

Do you have a radiator oil cooler?

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

Kyle I didn't want to bother you with it if it was not an motor issue, I am having power steering issues and did refill it just a week ago! If it is not the issue I will call and schedule a time for me to bring it to you. Other than that the motor is great no problems at all
I am a very happy customer who will be buying another motor soon!
