water in the oil

[Phkin Eh]

I have water in my oil what is the best way to flush the engine. truck won't start I got no vaccum from the intake I'm pretty sure it's a head gasket. Should I drain the radiator first before flushing out the engine.

Drain the oil/water out of the motor. Pull the head DO NOT TRY AND START IT untile you drain the fluid out of the motor.

Here's an odd story for you that is sort of in line with your situation. I had a sedan from one of those other car makers that had a problem with the lower intake gasket. Didn't realize it was there. Anyway, I ran some radiator cleaner through the system to get rid of these crystals that formed from some of that "red" antifreeze. Long story short, the gasket blew which caused all the coolant (including the rad cleaner) to end up in the oil. Bad right? In order to flush it all out, I just ran the motor and put a water hose into the oil filler at the same time I dropped the drain plug from the oil pan. I promise you that engine was never cleaner internally. =)
