If you get water in your oil it will look kind of like a light chocolate milkshake.

if you are talking about in your banshee im almost possitive the banshee doesnt take oil or doesnt have an oil stick either. It has a stick but its not for the oil i believe its for the crank case...

What do you think that 1 is from your 50:1 ratio??? It's oil![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

The oil in the banshee engine is for the transmision. And yes it does have a dipstick for it. Water in the oil will look milky. So change the transmision oil. You may have to do this more then one time to get all the water out.
