First guess would be a leaking head gasket. Check the engine oil & see if there's coolant in it…
Only two possibilities, well 2 and a half. The head gasket has failed, or head is cracked, effectively the same thing, or the oil cooler if fitted has failed.
Engine oil then head gasket problem. Transmission fluid then the transmission cooler on the side of the radiator has a hole in it and mixing anti freeze and transmission fluid
Some seepage of oil into the cooling system is to be expected in an older motor. The head gaskets start to leak little.
Take the radiator cap off and run the motor to see if you have any air pockets in the cooling system. Top up the coolant if air comes out. If you have pressure in the cooling system with the radiator cap off and a geyser of coolant coming out of the radiator neck it's time to replace the head gaskets.
Bad head gasket or cracked cylinder head is allowing oil to migrate into the cooling system.
- Where can I find engine size in 1996 Ford Econoline Passenger Van? I want to change oil in my van, I just bought it used a few months ago. Owner's Manual lists 4 different engine sizes for it. I can't find anything under the hood or any paper ID that lists the engine size for it. Just wondering if anyone else has any ideas. It's a van with a short hood and the engine can't be seen from under the hood.
- What is the value of a Ford Econoline van 1962? I'm asking for my uncle. Last year it was $650 now this year they are saying it's $2750. Something docent seem right with this and he wants to argue it with the people at the tax office. Also it's in about fair condition not sure if that helps.
