This is not unusual...

1) keep temps up above 170.
2) do not start up unless you fly for 1 hr at 70% power.
3) cruise with higher power levels (above 65%).
4) Insulate the oil breather tube (long neck).
5) Fly often.
6) Fly often.
7) Fly often.
8) Fly often (more than one hour).
9) Fly often!
10) do not idle and keep mixtures lean - on the ground.
11) Change oil every 30 hrs or 90 days.

There is only one cause for water in oil and that is Condensation !


hope this helps.
