antifreeze in oil....NOT head gasket

[bar87]

ok i got problems... i was trying to prime my oiling system after doing the timing chain, apperently i blew it & let some antifreeze get into the pan... so ive some cafe latte circulating thru my motor but THE ENGINE HASN'T BEEN RUN LIKE THIS. so im gonna have to pull the pan down & clean it but this stuff is all in my bearings now...is there a way to flush this stuff out using my priming tool?anyone ever pull a bonehead move like this? how did u get out of it?

ps i also discovered that my radiator is cracked at the upper hose
bad day at the office

Clean the pan and and your bearings the best you can with a rag. Re-prime with fresh oil and filled fillter. Run the car for a bit then change the oil and filter again. I can't imagine you got that much coolent in the system. If you drained the radiator and hoses there isn't that much to "drip" down from the water pump into the pan.

Pull the pan clean every thing good

If the oil/AF mixture was circulated by priming, all your bearings have been coated. After you clean out your pan, flush the oil cooler too. Add 7-8 quarts of oil and prime again. Before you do this, disconnect the oil feed line to the turbo, and pump the contaminated oil in a jug.

This may take a case or more of oil to get it clean. If you do not have one, now is the time to install an oil gauge. There is some damage done to the bearings due to the chemical reaction. At least an oil pressure gauge will allow you to monitor what happens internally as time goes by.
