oil dilution
I have about 50 mi on my 15/40w rotella break-in oil. The weber carbs have flooded on shut-down (boiled) and diluted the oil to some unknown degree. Should I dump it or run it ? Oil pressure is within Shelby specs, but is 80 lbs only when cold, drops down as soon as it's warm, but within specs.
I would think the gasoline in the oil would evaporate/burn away with use.
What say you?
