Im in need of changeing my thermostat and is wondering if anyone can help me out a lil bit, also I see that theres some mocha colored gunk in my oil cap, does that mean i have a leaky headgasket? My car takes a long time to warm up , im thinkin due to the thermostat being stuck open, could that be the cause of the coolant gettin mixed in my oil? No smoke or nothing just finding the mocha stuff under my oil cap.

If your coolant is mixing with your oil its your headgasket that is the problem, not the thermostat
