Does your oil smell like fuel?
Nope - just answered that question two posts back in this same thread...
BTW, I did a l-o-n-g and s-l-o-w flush of the system last night. Blocked off the airflow through the radiator so the temp would stay up and keep the t-stat open, propped the throttle open to keep it idling at 1500 RPMs, hooked up the garden hose and just cracked the valve open enough for a flow of about a gallon every 5 minutes or so. I let it sit and go like that for the better part of an hour - well past the point where the water coming out was nice and clear. Temp stayed up in the mid-range of the guage and the t-stat was open the whole time. Then just for good measure, I opened the hose valve up all the way and let it run at full flow for another 15 minutes or so. Then I even stuck the garden hose into the bottom of the overflow bottle and let it run for a few minutes to push everything out of it. So, I KNOW damned well I got EVERYTHING flushed out of the whole system.
When I got to work and checked it this morning there was more of the same gunk in the radiator - though it seemed like there was less of it today than there was yesterday. I'm really at a total loss as to what the hell is going on with the damned thing. I'm going to use it for my camping trip this weekend and see what happens (I'll be packing along SEVERAL jugs of water - just in case). After that I'm going to try pressurizing the tranny cooler with air and see if I get bubbles in the radiator.
For now, I'm just going to drive it, keep an eye on it, and see what the heck happens......
