Attention yotaboy 82
Yotaboy asked about a problem he was having with gas getting into his oil. I have seen a few others that have asked about this and wanted address/help you diagnose what can cause this.instead of hijacking anothers thread.
When you smell/see gas in your oil, it is generally caused by 3 things:
1 A sticking carb needle/float and seat. Clean/check the carb, change your fuel filter, it can let junk float by and stick in the needle and clog her up.
2 Carb is running TOO rich and allowing gas to blow past the pistions, while running and when it shuts off the flooded gas drains down into oil. You can check this by seeing if your plugs are blackened
3 Bad/faulty fuel pump. It's leaking some fuel down the timing chain and straight into the oil pan, some gas can make it into the pistons from the valves, etc... down into the oil pan as well.
Any questions, or comments, let me know. Always happy to help
