I am replacing the radiator on my 1991 Volvo 940 Turbo. The radiator sprung a leak and while removing hoses, I found oil in the hoses. When the car was overheating I ran the car an extra two miles to get it to a safe spot. Hopefully I didn't damage anything critical. I am going to drain the oil and change it. It appears the oil level is higher than it should be and I have always tried to be careful filling the oil. It is possible that when the radiator drained I damaged a seal and oil leaked back into the radiator? The turbo was replaced within the past two years.
