What does tiny bubbles in the motor oil mean?

I checked my engine oil and saw tiny bubbles on the dip stick. My freind said one of the gaskets are in trouble. Is this true or should i ingore the tiny bubbles?What does tiny bubbles in the motor oil mean?

its not necessarily a gasket, but any given thing that can cause air to enter the engine.What does tiny bubbles in the motor oil mean?
Hi,





I think the gasket has gone bad.Please check with you radiator fluid as well and if the radiator fluid also contains the same thing like while creamy thing deposited to the inner side of the radiator cap,walls of the radiator,then it is a damn sure case of head gasket leak.





How this milky thing formed?if you head gasket has blown water get mixed up with the engine oil and forms a emulsion which result in the millky thing.





Please dont ignore it and straight away take to the garage and repalce the head gasket and other gaskets if necesary and repalce new engine oil and radiator coolant.





Drive safely.

Does this stuff look a bit ';milky'; to you -- about the color of milk chocolate?





Take some of the oil from your dip stick between your thumb and finger and squeeze. Does WATER come out of your ';oil';?





If so, it's not simple condensate, and you've either got a blown head gasket, cracked block, or some other serious condition that is allowing water to leak across into your oil system. If so, do NOT continue to run this engine. The problem will get worse, and water is a LOUSY lubricant -- the engine won't forgive you for that, and you'll be out a lot more dough as a result.
hey dude, bad news that just happened to me and i tought it was nothing and i went from bad to worst at the end yes, the gasket head was mest up... the more you take the worst it gets....
This may be a sign of the Apocalypse. You'd better check with your auto mechanic or local priest.
Don't trip! It's nothing.
Don Ho reincarnated into your engine oil . . .
