When I went to check the oil level in my oil tank I noticed that there was a white, phlegm like substance coating the fill tube. It looked like the oil became foamy and began coughing up this white creamy subtance. There wasn't a whole lot of it, just some around the mouth and throat of the fill tube. What is this stuff? Should I be concerned?
I recently put a quart of regular oil in. The previous owner may or may not have used synthetic and so I'm not sure what was/is in the tank before I filled with natural 10-40.
Any ideas? Does my Porsche have bronchitis?
