I don't know how you would get fuel in our oil. Are you sure they didn't say coolant?90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

Stuck float and car parted downhill/gas tank higher? ?
Happened so many times on my 73 f350 with 390......
She'll siphon the tank dry, dribbles down intake, seeps past rings, presto, portrays your problem.
If is Fi, I'd say injectors leaking after pump is killed.
And yes, saturated enough, bad things happen. Backfire through intake ductwork, finds its way back to valve cover, ignites the gas fumes in the crank case you will be replacing oil pan and valve cover. Been there and done it.

ok first, what year and transmission is the car
second, fuel in the oil can ruin your cat converter (clog it) and can also cause a severe lack of lubricity. so, yeah, it's a bad thingTrees aren't kind to me...

ok well any ideas on how to fix it?Comment
-
you have to find what's broke FIRST before you can fix it...
pull the plugs and look for one that's wet or contaminated, then verify the bad plug's injector is leaking. a bad plug can also cause this: no ignition means that all the fuel is allowed to wash down the cyl wall and protrude into the crankcase.Trees aren't kind to me...
