I just checked the oil in my 95 850 and the dipstick is covered with a nasty thick white oily mess. i hope i dont have a bad head gasket!!! I only drive this car to work, 3 miles each way so i am hoping that it may just be condensation buildup. Also i am ready to do the pvc system replacment.

Can the dipstick tube be removed so that i could pull somthing through it to clean it out without pushing the crap into the oil pan?

I plan on getting running engine flush and changing the oil after i pick up some oil this afternoon.

thank in advance for any help Bob
