gas in oil
real simple, what are the ways that gas can get into your oil?
|
Flooding your motor, which I think is more common on the older cars. Gas in oil is bad, as the oil doesn't seal the chambers very well so you get bad starting compression.
|
It's normal for our cars. If the car runs rich, the injectors leak, or you flood it. The fuel runs past the rotor seals into the oil cavity in the centre of the rotor. The seals are good at stopping oil but gas just goes right under them.
It's why we change the oil more often than piston engined cars. |
i am so glad to hear that.. i was worried that i had blown a seal in my new motor.
i flooded my engine a few weeks ago, and it is running rich, so i guess that explains that |
its better to run rich than lean though :)

Rotaries put oil in there gas. Piston engines pollute their oil with all sorts of crap.
