Re: 99 cougar engine problems help please

It had been running for a few minutes prolly 5-10 minutes. That is what my oil cap looked like after running it for 20 minutes and then letting it cool for over an hour

Can't tell if that looks milky or reflection from the light. Drain a little from the oil pan and see what it looks like.

Oil cap doesn't look emulsified . Check dipstick to see if it's mixing with oil or just blowing out exhaust .


Test performed for a leaking head gasket or cracked block. The test can be carried out with a kit from Autozone , apparently in the tool loaner program, no cost.
