I was just wondering about the accumulation of gasoline in the oil. I do get it hot, the closest store is about 15 miles away.

Don't mean to get off topic here but how does gas get in the oil? The reason I ask Is because last week I tried to start my lawn tractor with a 20 hp Briggs and oil and gas shot out of the carburator. Smelled the oil and it was full of gas. Drained the oil and turned the engine over a few times with out the plugs to blow it out.Cleaned things up including cleaning the plugs, filled with new oil , replaced the plugs and it started and ran like new.
Never had that happen before, Mike
