After chasing down cooling issues this whole week, I just looked in my oil cap and saw the dreaded chocolate milk look. I just got finished replacing the water pump, all hoses, t-stat, temp sensor, and had a leak fixed in my radiator, and now this. I overheated it pretty bad last week, which I'm assuming is what caused the head gasket to go, since it wasn't like that earlier last week.
Ideally, I'd like to dig into this as soon as possible, but it's been quite a few years since I've done it and always had some help, so I don't want to do it alone. If anyone could help out, I can provide the food/soda/beer/etc or maybe a few bucks if it's necessary. BTW, I'm in the Clairemont area, just up Gennessee from Mesa College. The jeep drives fine right now, so I'm pretty sure I could get it somewhere else if needed, too. I have a basic tool set, sockets, pliers, etc., but no hoist or anything to get the head out.
