But did the excess gas kill the cylinder from a leaky carb or what? Thinking of the overall higher wear in the carbed days, I am sure you are right over the long term and when things were cold. I just think with the OP's warmed engine, it probably was not a factor in the readings. (But I think I killed some aircraft engine cylinders with too much raw fuel on a cold start once....)But think back to olden days,lol, when a vehicle came into your shop with a dead cylinder. During the diagnoses, how many times didn't you pull the dipstick, and find the oil diluted with gas in the crankcase?
Your thoughts?
