Since then the vehicle will loose all electrical power and stall. Do you think these events are related? It seems odd that oil in the gas tank would cause electrical problems. Any advice? dave284 Enthusiast / Moderator Mar 12, 2008, 9:41 PM Post #2 of 4 (1164 views) Re: Oil in gas tank Sign In Theres a chance it could have contaminated the 02 sensors and injectors but you need to have the check engine code read to be sure,how much fuel was in the gas tank before the accident?, worst thing I've seen in this kind of mishap is the vehicle smoked like a freight train for about a week way2old Veteran / Moderator Mar 13, 2008, 4:37 AM Post #3 of 4 (1161 views) Re: Oil in gas tank Sign In Dave has a good point, but I don't think there will be any adverse effects from the mistake. If it is a 32 to 1 mixture and you pour it into a 30 gallon tank, along with more fuel added all the time, the dilution will be so small there should be no problem. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Mar 13, 2008, 7:31 AM Post #4 of 4 (1158 views) Re: Oil in gas tank Sign In Ditto: An ounce of the mix oil (about what might be in a half gal pre mixed) in 30 gal shouldn't throw everything off. There's more and more junk additives and alternatives in the fuel we are buying without us knowing exactly what that is playing games with us too, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
