This was new to me so I thought it might help someone that suspects coolant/oil mix
Take an old cast iron pan and put it on your stove, let it get to around 250 300 degrees and drop a few drops of your oil on it...if there is ANY water or anti-freeze in your oil, it will sizzle and pop. If its clean, the oil will just smoke. That's the way we do it where I work(CATERPILLAR), and we build 12 cylinder quad turbo engines....except we have a hot plate and an oil spectrology machine to see what and how much of certain elements are in the oil...but that is foolproof.
