Milky Coolant in the Header

Odd one this...

Couldn't see any blue fluid in the tank for a couple of rides.

decided today to get the cap off and look inside with a view to a topup.

Pulled the tank back and took off the pressure cap and there was a white viscos foamy **** in there.

I will drain and flush tomorrow. Have taken out the drain plug fm water pump and all that comes out is pure blue anti f.

I know when I had a replacement Gearbox 700 miles ago the mechanic admitted that the said tank had slipped into some oil and taken some on. He had washed it thru a number of times and has offered at next service to flush the cooling system thru for free.

Oil level is fine and a good dark brown colour.

Coolant from the pump is blue and coolant like as expected.

Top header tank is full of milk.

Like I said will drain and flush tomorrow and refill.

Any advice welcome

Cheers guys
