Condensation

Ive come across this from time to time. Crankcase condensation from running the engine for short periods of time so the oil dosent ever get hot enough to evaporate the condensation. Other than frequent oil changes is there another way to cure this problem?

Run the engine longer (at least 30 minutes) with engine temp in the normal range on the temp gauge. Condensation present in the crankcase is never a good thing will ruin the engine bearings (water is not a good lubricant)
Check/replace your PCV valve to make certain it is functioning properly
