Re: There is oil in the water and it keeps overhaeting;...
Oil in the antifreeze means the head gasket is in need of replacement due to leaking between oil and antifreeze passages at the head.
The engine may need to be flushed out as well (antifreeze).
Check the fan to see if it operates properly.
Do you also have water in the engine oil (oil will have brownish color) ?
Either way, oil in water, water in oil, the first suspect is a leaking head gasket.
You are probably losing coolant which is causing the overheating.
More info, let me know.
