Oil in my coolant AGAIN!

[Joe.Doty at lcnetwork.com (Joe Doty)]

Yeah, I'd toss that piece.  It's pretty easy, you can cut off the lower
hose and plug it with something (I used a chevy lug nut), and go to your
local auto parts store and get the water pump-to-block hose for a non
oil warmer car.  I brought my old hose to the store and they let me find
one that matched it without that little branching off deal for the oil
warmer.  As far as the nipple for the oil filter, you can get a junkyard
one from a non oil warmer car.  I didn't want to so I just cut off the
threads from the original nipple and used it.  There's not a ton of
threads but I don't imagine it'll ever fall off

Well, after a 400 mile trip to the beach, I notice that I was using a
lot of oil.  About a quart for 400 miles.  Well, yesterday, I see my
coolant bottle is filling with emulsified oil.  That's the way my car
was when I got it.  I happen to have another "oil warmer" around and I
put that on.  I didn't have time to do a good flush, so I hope that was
what it was.  I need to find that parts to get that warm in the trash!
