There must be water in there. Keep changing it.
Where you at in the Windy? I was born & raised in Cicero.

I mean was the oil white or just light brown? Did you have so much water in the motor that it changed the oil level? As in overfull? And did you change the oil at least 4 times changing the oil filter with a new one 3 times?
When you change your filters on a Honda you can let them dry out for future flushes, that is if you have chronic engeine flooding like I did.
