What to Do If Water Gets into the Oil?

[StAndres]

Completely drain the gasoline, thoroughly clean the vehicle's fuel tank and fuel system, replace the vehicle's fuel filter, remove the spark plugs, and let them dry. Generally, clean the fuel system every 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers or every three years to avoid fuel system blockages and ensure better fuel supply to the engine.

I was really anxious when I discovered the oil emulsification. The milky white liquid looked like coffee with milk. After checking, I realized it might be due to a deteriorated cylinder head gasket or driving through deep water on rainy days. Last time after a highway run, I felt the power was sluggish, and the fuel consumption suddenly skyrocketed, which scared me into shutting off the engine immediately. Now I've learned my lesson - if I see this situation again, I won't continue driving but will call a tow truck for repairs right away. A friend taught me to drain the old oil first and flush the system with cleaning oil twice, but I dare not try it myself. Any residual moisture could damage the crankshaft bearings. It's recommended to check the oil dipstick every three months to monitor its color - prevention is always cheaper than repairs.
