Help, getting my engine back together, pulled the oil plug and a bunch of coolant ..

bunch of coolant came out.

im thinking it was when i changed my RMS since the coolant dropped right down into the oil pan. Has this happened to others? what do it do? flush with more oil? hate to waste 7 quarts.

So you changed a part and coolant got into the oil pan and then you didn't immediately change your oil If your wondering yes this IS bad for your engine, don't drive it! Get 7 qrt of oil and a filter , regular oil is fine don't bother with Synthetic. Change the oil+filter , start and run the engine to operating temp ( don't drive it ). Shut down the engine and drain the oil and remove the filter , let the oil drain over night. Add new oil ( your regular oil ) and filter. Just to be on the safe side mark the coolant level in your expansion tank at operating temp and keep an eye on it.

i havent started the car yet after the RMS change, the oil was completely drained also when i did the seal change. I think im just going to flush it out with some oil and let it drain over night
