  • Creamy oil???

    I have the clutch cover off to replace springs and attempt a clutch refurbishing. The little bit of oil that is hanging out in the nooks and crannies of the clutch compartment is creamy-tan??? The only other time I have was about 10 years ago when my '81 datsun pickup blew a head gasket and the coolant mixted with the oil. I JUST changed my oil to the Honda motorcycle oil and didn't use any additives. Nor has the bike been exposed to a drop of weather in since then. The oil I drained didn't have any thing like this either. Any ideas what might be up?

    Condensation. It happens when an engine is started , not fully warmed up and then sits for awile. If the engine is started and run till hot, that will go away.-Tom.
