Re: Gas in Oil

I would check the floats are set properly in the carbureator. If they are to high they are prone to flooding.

Re: Gas in Oil

If the engine has a mechanical fuel pump, it can leak fuel through the diaphragm into the crankcase. Gas usually makes BLACK smoke when too much is in the "mix". The real danger to the engine here is the gas will dilute the oil, reducing its ability to lube properly. This WILL lead to engine failure if not corrected.
