Okay Guys I have a problem yet again with my K1500. I started to look at the oil in the crankcase by the dipstick and it was frothy and bubbly. I know it is bad. But I wanna know what I can do to fix it. its a 350 5.L
Thanks

you may have too much oil in there and the crank is hitting it. best thing i can suggest is oil change. can ya take a pic of it?

Yeah I can do that when I change it. Could it also be the seafoam I put in there? I'm gonna put either slick 50 or Lucas oil stabilizer pure synthetic with this next oil change. Which I hope to do when it stops raining.

It looks more black and just a slight tint of orange around the edges. it has the same thickness as regular motor oil. and my coolant has always been low since i changed my water pump. i put just enough in to do its job. and ill check for oil.

No oil in my coolant. just little flecks of aluminum from that sealant that i put in there. (bad idea)
