I just drained the oil this evening getting ready for VIR next week. To my surprise, when I pulled the filler cap I noticed a milky foam inside the cap. Now, I know if you've got milky oil, you probably have a head gasket failure. However, the oil looked fine, it was just inside the cap. I pulled the case and the foam was inside the case cover as well. The clutch basket looks clean.
I normally use Shell Rotella Synthetic during the season. Over the winter I drained out the Rotella and put in cheap dyno oil. I've been starting in lately every day or so letting it idle for a bit. Most of the time it does not have enough time to come up to operating temperature. Also, there isn't any out of the ordinary smoke out of the exhaust when idling.
My thought at this point is that I might have some sort of cross contamination of the two oils? Any other ideas?
