post icon fuel in the oil Sign In
I bought a Porsche 924 Turbo to work on and fix up.
When I drained the oil I found it had fuel in the old oil.
Before I add new oil and contaminate it, I would like to know how fuel got in the oil and what to repair to stop it from happening again

Thank you to anyone that has advise.
Tim

Re: fuel in the oil Sign In
Does this have a mechical fuel pump on engine? I don't know my Porches by # so if it does it could be that or carb or fuel injectors leak down a lot flooding it out,

Re: fuel in the oil Sign In
The system has an electronic fuel pump with fuel injection, I forgot to mention the car is a 1980

Re: fuel in the oil Sign In
The injectors must leak or over do with fuel that doesn't atomize and gets past pistons into the oil. I can't think of another way. It must run terribly,

Re: fuel in the oil Sign In
I have only started the car a couple of times and it ran fine. it has a cold start system on it which is just a fifth injector that acts like a choke.
The guy I bought it from says it needs a warm up regulator which I am not quite sure of its function.
Also the oxygen sensor light was on and i know that can affect the fuel delivery.

Thank you for you interest.

Re: fuel in the oil Sign In
That cold enrichment injector has to be the problem or the control of it. Good luck with the fix,
