In Reply to: Gas in my oil. posted by jdp8402 on February 11, 2011 at 09:33:52:
I had a similar issue with my Farmall 350 when I bought it. It would cut out and miss but continue to run. I was getting huge amounts of gas in the oil as one piston would hardly ever fire and the gas ran down the cylinder walls into oil. When I checked the plugs one or two would always be wet with gas. I had the carb rebuilt hoping it would help.
When I installed it the tractor still ran the same way. I kept adjusting it 1/4 turn at a time (as advised by the guy who rebuilt it) with no results. After a couple weeks of this one day I tried to shut off the fuel at the main setting - after about 3 or 4 full turns the tractor suddenly smoothed out and ran great. With it firing on all 4 cylinders the gas quit fouling the oil.
As mentioned below its ALMOST certain that gas is not filling the engine with fuel while its not running. But anything is possible.
