Truck will turn over but wont start after seafoam, and gas in engine oil

ok i know a few stuff about trucks, but not a whole lot.. Well i have a lifted blazer on 33's off of a trade, had for about a week or two now.. well i noticed a strong smell of gas.. will turns out i had a gas leak on my hose above the drive shaft.. well i put some water weld on it and i think it held up.. It has a miss in idle and sometimes loses power when driving, will hit the gas and nothin happens.. checked the oil and its a strong smell of gas in it, and its showing its a quart or two over filled (bc of gas in it). i put a bottle of fuel injector cleaner in the gas.. Well i put 1/2 bottle of seafoam in vacuum hose of brake booster.. it started to smoke, i know thats normal.. so i cut it off after it warmed up, put the rest in the gas and waited 15 mins.. after that 15 mins it wont start now.. the truck will turn over but wont crank.. it drained my battery twice, but i keep charging it.. even tried gettin jumped off, nothin.. I have a 1995 blazer 4wd stock engine..

Don't run the engine with gas in the oil.

If you have fuel in the oil you most likely have a dripping fuel injector. The dripping fuel injector could also be the cause of your no start condition as you probably have a too rich fuel to air ratio condition for combustion to occur.

The '95 has a CPI injection system and that system is prone to regulator leakage. As others have said, don't try to run it with all that gas in it, you can easly spin a bearing. A quick way to diagnose it is to pull the the upper intake off, and look for washing on the intake. If its wet inside there, you need a new CPI spider.
