Are you using "Water Wetter" or a similar product? I have seen Water Wetter beed up like oil in the degas bottle under some cercumstances.

common u ford guys

Yes, i used water weter n thought of that so i put 50/50 water/ coolant in a milk jug and added water weter ,it blended right in,but thats a good call thanks for ur reply i live in florida it was around 90 today heat could be a factor (under what tempatures have u seen that stuff bead) and i have installed a new water pump/ raidator without a flush but the pump should have a seald baring n the rad was sealed off at the conectors with caps

I'm not sure why it happens. It could be due to air in the cooling system, but that is a guess.

I saw it happen to a Dodge Stratus at an autocross a couple of years ago. He had his car towed and started to tear down the engine before he realized it was just the Water Wetter beading up.
