Because it's cold outside. Check the stickies or use the search feature to get the full story. Just as you're too lazy to search, I'm to lazy to type it or link it.

Enjoy.

foam or milky?
foaming is totally different. in piston engines it would be oil level being too high, but I dont know how is that gonna happen in a rotary engine. probably try change the oil?
