On the subject of the Gas in the oil
Ok, correct me if i'm wrong guys. This might possibly be oil control rings.. (again correct me if i'm wrong)
Does the car smoke? when you rev it? when downshifting? A little smoke is 'normal' at startup
This is 'normal' due to the fact of the way the engine is sitting.. oil seeps down onto the spark plugs
when you go to start it.. it simply burns off instantainiusly...
I've seen many cars, freshly rebuilt... after break in period.. smoke sightly at start-up. Again this is 'normal'
It is not normal to have Lots of bluish, or white smoke at startup. It should go away after 5 to 10 seconds after turning the ignition over.
Change your Oil. Get some new plugs, run it for a while.. (500-1000 miles) than come back and see if it still smells like gas. Is the engine flooding??
