Homicide Says: today my friend checked his oil and there was peanut butter colour foam in it and on the cap, i read this could be head gasket failure or condensation from cold weather but its been really hot lately, its a 1997 vauxhall corsa 1.2, the last oil change was 2008 by the previous owner and has done 100,623 miles

dick car guy Says: head gasket problem just starting, stop driving the car, water or antifreeze in the oil will ruin the big end of the car, so you want to park it, while it is still good, then all you have to do is change the head and gasket,
