[QUOTE="naskeet, post: 635418, member: 15903"] One can also experience petrol in the engine oil, if carburettor icing and/or inlet-manifold icing is occurring. This was something that I experienced with the Minnow Fish carburettor equipped, 1973 VW 1600 Type 2 during the winters of 1987/88 & 1990/91. At the time, I was using Mobil 1, SAE 5W/50, API SF, fully-synthetic oil, which is probably more tolerant of fuel dilution than ordinary mineral oil. [/QUOTE]
