There no milky oil on the coils. The oil in the heads looks normal. The CCV and all the lines were full of the milky oil. There was no milky oil in the oil pan either. One of the coils had a lot of old oil on it. Someone also performed some backyard maintenance on it too. There RTV silicone everywhere inside the valve cover. I’ll be pulling the head later this evening. I’ll post some pics when I get to that point. I’m taking a break for now.
