    Tiny bubbles appearing in m20 oil dipstick

    Was doing a routinely check on the oil and noticed these tiny bubbles new to the m20 engines anyone out there who has an idea why this is happening?

    It looks dirty to me. I would change the oil, try to let every little bit drain out.

    If your new oil looks like that after a few hundred miles, could always be HG.

    Are your temps staying consistent? What brand oil?

Maybe the species that communicate with each other through a filter of your comfort are less evolved that the ones that just communicate? Maybe your problems are your own to deal with and maybe the public giving a shit about your feelings is a one way ticket to extinction.

        Temperature has been consistent. People are telling me its the type of oil I added in there. Coolant reservoir doesn't seem to be going down drastically.
