Other way around, check the oil for coolant....your oil will be brown and milky.

I love it, with all the replies, no body even hit close to the issue.
Other then you could probably use a tune up, Rover engines burn rich and as such the oil smells like gas, it is not rings, head gaskets or the need for a new engine.
So not knowing what you are using for gas and how long it has been since you have done a good tune up along with 8 mm wires, maybe an induction cleaning and a can of 44k and you will be in alot better shape.

No one who owns a Disco should have problems with a little fire. NOTE: Pull the dipstick from the tube and allow the oil/fuel solution to drain into a jar. Be very careful when you toss the match in. A flame could possibly ignite the oil/fuel solution. Have a bucket of water available. If you have a fire extinguisher have that available as well. Toss the match in the jar at least 50 feet away from any flamable object or building. Do not stand into the wind when tossing the match into the jar. Wear safety glasses and a full body fire retardent suit. God be with you.
