My engine oil smells like gas, I do I fix this.?

it also has black smoke coming from pipe, and its ';jerking'; when i push gasMy engine oil smells like gas, I do I fix this.?
The engine is being over-fueled by the fuel injection system or carburetor. The jerking you ';feel'; are the spark plugs not being able to ignite such an over - rich fuel mixture in the combustion chambers. Unburned gasoline is traveling through your exhaust system and partially burning in the converter instead of the combustion chambers. Raw fuel is washing down the cylinders into the crankcase oil. A rotten plugged-up air cleaner can cause this.





We must know the year make and model of your car to have any chance of helping you out. A car is not just a car, they're all quite different.





If your car hasn't had a tune-up in the past 50,000 miles it's over due. Possibly the plug gaps are burned too wide so the spark can't jump the gap. The ignition wires should be replaced right along with the spark plugs. * It's imperative the the car gets the factory recommended spark plugs. They'll be listed in the book in the glove-compartment. If the book is missing the dealer of your can tell you exactly which plugs it should have.





You've got a lott of stuff to check and we know nothing about your car!My engine oil smells like gas, I do I fix this.?
Your fuel injectors are leaking. After you shut your engine off fuel line pressure is being dumped into the cylinders and the gasoline then seeps past the piston rings and into the crankcase. Leaking fuel injectors also cause a rich fuel mixture while the engine is running which accounts for the black smoke from the exhaust pipe and jerky throttle.
if the engine is carburated the choke is sticking,if the engine is fuel injected have the throttle position sensor and the fuel/air solenoid checked once you find the problem you need to change your oil and filter,new spark plugs %26amp; a tune up wouldn't hurt either.
Dear Finesse it sounds like you have a injector stuck open and gas is getting in the oil and the black smoke is the engine flooding you need to take it to a shop or if you know someone have them check it i hope this helped
while wildbill has a partial point, he completely forgot to ask the year, make and model of the vehicle we are talking about as then we will know if it has a carburetor or fuel injection...


so that being said, year, make and model please...
This problrm is not going to be diagnosed or fixed via the internet. Take it to a mechanic!
