Fuel in oil Question
Fuel in oil Question
Is it possible for fuel to get into the oil pan?
My oil seams to feel very thing and Im wondering if maybe fuel is passing the piston rigs and getting into the oil.
Or per haps the fuel injectors are too large?
Or maybe I have a miss from a plug or wire?

I had that happen because of a broken diaphragm on an on-block fuel pump on a van but we know for sure that isn't your problem. See if you can light the oil on the dipstick with a lighter if has enough gas in to burn, for sure don't drive it. I ruined the bearings in the van that way. injector problems are the most likely cause in your car. The extended oil interval guys test regularly for this with oil analysis.

I am going to see if I can have an oil sample from my car burned at work. We have a Oil monitering program for the Jet Engine oil we run in the aircraft. Hopefully I can slip my sample in the machine and it will tell me what all is in there.
