Head Gasket Problems??
I changed my oil a week ago and the nylon gasket on the oil plug cracked so I changed it a few days later after I put the new oil in. When I switched that gasket out the little bit of oil that came out before I could get my finger over the hole appeared to have some antifreeze in it. I know the overflow tank always empties somewhere because I can put some coolant in and in a few days it is gone. I think it is the head gaskets but would like to hear what others say before I go too far.
Thanks!

Could be a headgasket, or the corners of the intake manifold gasket. Do you have an aluminum intake? They are more prone to leaking. You can get a "block tester" from your local Napa store. Use it to check for a leaking headgasket.
