How do you tell if you have oil in your coolant?

I'm not a mechanic / technician but from what I have heard your engine oil will turn kind of milky looking if antifreeze is getting into the engine oil Also , the oil level will keep rising on the dipstick ( I did have a vehicle once that I had pink colored antifreeze in it , the oil would actually float on top of the antifreeze after the engine was shut down for a while , it wouldn't mix but the oil level on the dipstick kept going up and the engine coolant kept going down ( Sorry , I reviewed my answer and it's for coolant in the oil )

Will it hurt the engine if you mix colors of antifreeze?

in some case it will. the composition of antifreeze is different by colour. in some engines the chemicals react with the engine parts (i.e. gaskets or seals) and cause the parts to fail. use the proper antifreeze for your engine.
