3 oil changes, still petrol in there
« on: 20 March 2014, 22:25 »
anyone know how petrol can keep getting into my oil, it happened when it was flooding and it must have washed the bores, but I changed the oil and after a week of driving it, the oil smells of petrol again and it's causing the buzzer to come on

You could also have a sticking injector

wouldn't it burn oil if it was the rings?
how do I check for a sticking injector?
