Thanx everyone for all your advice, I will be doing a very thorough flush as soon as the better weather comes.... I will keep you posted on how this goes...

Rubber hoses have not been replaced but they look good and not perished, the anti freeze was already in the vehicle when I bought it, so I’m not sure what it is, the stuff in the radiator is oil. No compression check done yet.... have u heard of this happening before?

Hi there Don... dipstick level has not gone down, radiator is not full to the top, there is no oil filter, the oil is ozzing from the full length of rubber pipes and the clamps, and yes they are tight. Oil is also ozzing out from the heater pipes....

Thanx for the info... I’ve only had the truck 12 months and it’s hardly been used, so think I’ll flush out cooling system first, refill it and hope for the best....

Hello everyone.... I have a 1939 Dodge wc pickup with a flathead six engine. I have recently noticed that I have engine oil in the coolant, the truck starts and runs beautifully, but up to now, no one seems to know why this is happening. I am concerned because all of my water hoses are oozing oil, and I have half an inch of engine oil floating around in my radiator. There is no water in the sump. I am hoping someone can give me some advice so I can fix this problem.... i do not have a specialist here in the UK that can give me an answer... thankyou in advance for any advice you can give.
