Hi all, It been a long while since I been on here and I hope everyone is doing well. Last week I discovered that the oil cooler on my 7.4L Bluewater inboard had failed and I had milkshake coming out the exhaust with the cooling water. The oil cooler has been replaced, no more milkshake in the exhaust, the problem now is I. have milkshake in my engine oil. I have already changed the oil once and plan to change it a few more times. Is the anything else I can do besides just changing the oil until it clear. FYI I am planning to replace the oil cooler on the other engine as well as the 2 trans fluid coolers as preventive maintence since as far as I know they are all 35yr old. All advice is greatly appreciated.

Quick update. Did 5 quick oil changes with 4 quarts each time and dumping the oil filter, 5-10 runs. The I did a full oil change and new filter then took her out for a nice 30 min run at 3400 rpms. All seem good. I will do another full oil change before winter storage in a couple month. Thank again for the advice. Have a great holiday weekend.
