Check for carburetordribbling raw fuel into intake manifold after shut down. Summer heat sometimes causes excessivepressure build up in fuel bowl and or boiling of fuel in fuel bowl forcing rawfuel be purged eventually ending up in crankcase.
Question: could this occur even though I generally only take short trips where the engine often barely gets up to temp? I'm also in san diego, so rarely does she get driven in anything over 80 degrees. Regardless, I'll have to peek in there after the next shut down as you suggest.
No, no, no :angry7: That's what I was hoping not to hear! I hope that's not the case. They're not all that expensive I suppose. Is there a way to check them beforehand? I didn't notice any obvious visual issues on the old one that I took out, but perhaps it's not something obvious.
So I'm safe to assume this is generally either a fuel pump issue or carb issue, right?
The oil still feels 'oily' and it's not rising on the dipstick at this point-in-time. Luckily.
