ORIGINAL: Dusty Eclipse

Im fairly certain they would both mean the same thing... only one made its way all the way to the cap...
are you f'ing serious? You do know why you end up with white crap under the oil cap from a blown head gasket. Its because of the leak you end up getting coolant into the head which mixes with oil, which then creates this oil stuff. This then gets burnt off in the chambers and creates the white smoke youll see comming out of the exhuast. You dont get coolant into you oil pan
