It's very common on high milege,neglected motors to find an inch thich sludge stuck in the bottom of the pan.If you just bought the vehicle it could be other things though.But sludge doesn't mean the motor won't last a while.Hey has that thing gotta Heme in it? No, it's a shevy not heme!

How about the dipstick tube, is it out of a high milage engine? The sludge could be in the tube.

Well, you got a problem then.... I have'nt heard of that one before !! Are you sure you are using a clean rag to wipe the dipstick ?"aerodynamics are for people who cant build engines"

well im the same one that has been having gas going into my oil pan and i was thinking that the gas is robbing the lube from the bearings and everything and maybe it was the break in lube like Gerald said. The rag is clean...
Thanx,
