G day I have an 89 Nissan Patrol Wagon, the other day it got hot and when I lifted the bonnet there was oil right down the passengers side of the engine bay coming from the radiator overflow bottle, when I took the radiator cap off, I got covered in engine oil, the motor was stopped at the time and when I kicked it over it blew oil out of the top of the radiator, there is no water in the oil in the sump, Any Ideas ????

Gday Clunk, Ouch!!! Yep, sort of thought that could be the case, (Cracked head) I haven't had a chance to pull it down yet, but I thought I might get as many thoughts on what might be the problem, if it's in the top I'll be happy with that, Thanks for your input.

Regards,
Dave
