Two steps forward and a giant leap backwards.

I have never seen condensation change the color like that but that is what my old man said. If it passes the pressure test then I’m going to let it run for 30 minutes in the garage then check the oil again.


Why are you not driving it? Stop letting it sit there and idle. Get some load on it before you kill any possibility of decent ring seal. Letting it idle with no load won’t build oil temperature. Get a load on it.
