Milkshake Under Truck

[97C1500TJ]

I moved my 97 for the first time in a week and when I backed up, I saw this milky spot on top of my oil spot on the driveway. I can’t see it being a head gasket as the coolant is clean and full both in the rad and overflow. Oil cap and dipstick are clean. I also don’t have an oil cooler running through the rad. It has been rainy these past few days but never noticed this before. Any ideas?

Either you'll find the problem really soon when you don't want to find it, or somebody dumped out an actual milkshake under your truck.

I'd crawl under it an try to find where it dripped from. With a puddle that big, there's gotta be some evidence there somewhere.

Your truck is trying to bring all the boys to the yard.

But yea, with a spot that big there's gotta be a visible oil leak somewhere. Since its been a few weeks, it may just be an oil leak and condensation/morning dew causing the milky look.

The oil puddle is from my stripped drain plug. I’ve been living life on the edge for a year now with a stripped out pan. The milkshake formed on top of the spot.

I’ll be getting my truck up on a rack today and investigate further just in case.

probably just morning dew/condensation forming on top of the oil puddle
