how much custard are we talking about, a little build up on the cap or is the whole insides of the rocker cover full of milky sludge?

My brother did an engine swap many years ago and swapped fuel with coolant lines, lets just say it didn't run well on coolant :roll:

As suggested, check for wrongly connected hoses somewhere

I'm confused, are you saying that it used all the water in the overflow bottle or from the radiator?

If its only the cap that looks milky, and the water is missing from the overflow, could it be that you didn't bleed the cooling system properly, and the milk is just condensation?
