What up, Peoplez, it's been a while since i've been here. I had a lot of stuff going on. Anywayz, I have a 90 Toyota Corolla and the oil is going into the radiator. I'm just wondering why it's happening? And Is it gonna cost a lot to fix? Thank you in advance!

Head gasket maybe?

Sounds like a headgasket or your engine is getting ready to go. When I drained the radiator from my '94 Corolla with a blown engine it had oil in there. Took the engine apart and the pistons were destroyed.

Head gasket, huh? Wow. I think my engine is ready to go cause it does have 355,100+ miles on it. Once it goes, i'ma put another engine in there. I'm thinking about a 4A-GE. Thank you both!

At 355,000+ miles, that is not very surprising. Gaskets don't last forerver!

Head gasket. My 4afe did the same thing at 173k.
