RE: [DML] Off white dipstick....HELP

[DANIEL SHANE <daniel.shane@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have you changed your Oil.

You can get condensation in an engine and if left a
fair bit and collect in the oil, giving the appearance
of coolant in the oil.

The first thing I would do is change the oil and the
filter and clean the dipstick.  Then run the engine
for a while and check the dipstick again.
