Best Answer

If you have gas in your oil pan, then you probaby have gas in your oil. if you have gas in your oil, then you either have bad piston rings, or a bad carburetor (or injectors if the engine is newer).

The way to check if you have bad piston rings is to see if you're blowing blue smoke out of your exhaust.
