head gasket ???
i noticed a problem when checking my collant level !!! i saw in there a slight oil scum ontop of the water so i flushed out completely and changed the coolant and topped her back up !!
left the cap off and left her running to watch the coolant return to the expansion tank which it did but with very small beads of oil and white foam then after idling for 10 min when it was upto temp she just boiled over
anyone with any ideas or is it head off time

Similar thing happened to me with a Mazda which had an oil/water cooler. That turned out to be oil/water mixing in the cooler due to the water passages rusting……Much easier to solve that the head gasket.
