22re oil in coolant
90 4runner with 22re, engine running fine, not overheating, no white smoke, oil looks decent. Did compression test, all cylinders around 155/160psi. pulled rocker cover, looks clean inside, chain guides still there. The oil in the rad is pretty thick and syrupy... seems like a lot of oil made it into the coolant. Any advice on how to proceed?

Was going to say the Trans cooler could be leaking into the rad but it b being a 5speed it shouldn't be hooked up.
Check the guide on the drivers side and you could have a oil passage meeting a coolant passage in the head gasket.

Check timing chain on passenger side that's where the tensioner is with a plastic guide (well if it hasn't been upgraded to metal). Tensioner lets chain slop which breaks the plastic guide chain eats through the timing chain cover.
Put a long screw driver down on chain to check for slop, might see broken guide if your lucky.

oh..the radiator came from a v6 with a blown hg. The owner of that rig may have used a stop leak product. Could the sludge be coming from just the rad?
