I recently changed the oil and filter just like every year. Just came back from a duck hunt where the temps got into the lower 20's.

The last day of the hunt I noticed a small sheen on the water around the motor. Got it home and noticed some oil residue around the exhaust port on the back of the motor. I pulled the cowl and noticed some more residue coming out of the air intake. Checked the oil and it was way over full, milky and runny.

I ran ran it a couple times before the hunt with the fresh oil, and checked the oil before we left. It was perfect.

The weird thing is it starts and runs fine still.

What gives? Any guesses?
 
That's what I was afraid of.

What's a new head gasket installed gonna run me at the shop?
 
Gotta look into the cause of the overheat & fix that first or you'll just be throwing head gaskets at it.
