Flooded the motor, unflooded it, got it running, is it safe to drvie????
Because once I got it running I checked the oil, it seems to be thinned out and smells like gas.... is it safe to run like this at all??? I can get it changed monday, but would it hurt for the weekend?
Thanks,
jeff b

Fuel is thinner than oil, so your oil control seals don't do a good job keeping gas from getting into the oil as well as they keep oil from getting into the combustion chamber. When your engine is flooded, and your rotor goes into the compression stage, your are basically pushing gas into your oil. Change you oil, and if you can figure out how to stop it from flooding, let me know...
