[QUOTE=Y-Blockhead;1805932]I think that tells us a lot right there... The engine is not getting hot enough nor run long enough to keep the water in vapor state until it is expelled out the breather or road draft tube. Water is a byproduct of combustion.

This is interesting -- what would be considered a safe period for driving in order to reduced/elimate all vapor/water in the oil? Never occured to me that water was a byproduct.
Thanks
