Watch Oil Drain Like a Chocolate Milkshake

Jan. 14, 2021

What sort of engine issue would you guess led to this consistency of engine oil?

Jan. 14, 2021—The Chevrolet Tahoe in a video shared on Reddit has a bit of an engine contamination problem.

Techs couldn't help but cringe when they pulled the drain plug and a disgusting brown liquid spilled out. The good people over at Motor1 reached out to the technician who posted the video to learn more about the situation.

The owner of the vehicle had overheating issues, and the engine eventually stalled. The intake gaskets had failed, and the overheating got so bad that the engine block cracked.
