    Gas in oil

    Is the throttle body & and sensor the only things that could
    cause this? I just put in a rebuilt long block have 3500 miles
    on it. I replaced the throttle body at the request of the shop because
    my old one they said they had to remove a spring because it was not
    going all the way down to Idle. Now after getting a throttle body from a
    wrecking yard it seems they were talking about a dash pot ? These guys
    are a fairly good size operation I find it odd they just said it was a
    spring
    and was hard to explain. So I replaced the body I'm not real sure mine was
    bad
    I could get what felt like slop on the original but I noticed on the used
    one I bought
    had slight slop also but I can only feel it when they are closed. The first
    was worse
    then the second. The sensor felt great and adjusted fine. I'm using a quart
    every 500
    to 1000 miles seems better off the freeway? Needless to say I cant go back
    to these jokers they left several hose clamps off and seemed very hurried
    working and were selling parts over the phones all then time they were doing
    there work plus the said the clean up the Throttle Body they never even had
    it
    OFF.

    I guess my questions are.
    Send in a oil sample?
    Is the dash pot necessary?
    And what order would you put the priority's and
    any suggestions.

    This is on a 88 4X4 22RE

    Thanks for any help.

    If your engine is making oil, sounds like a leaky injector to me.

    So I can get gas in the oil from a bad injector??

    I'm really in a bad situation the last two shops
    that worked on this I would not even let them
    install a wiper blade. I better work on finding a
    honest mechanic.

    Thanks..Greg

    Sure, if the injector has a crappy spray pattern or is clogged or is
    sticking open, fuel will leak into the cylinder at the wrong time and make
    its way into the crank case.

    So a good mechanic should be able to trouble shoot what's causing
    this ? or do you need to replace parts?

    Thanks Again!! Greg

    If you are losing oil, the problem is not a leaking injector..
    I re-read your first message some more again and it says you're *using* a
    quart in 500 to 1000 miles..
    If it's a "rebuilt longblock" and it's using a quart that often, then
    something is not quite right inside the engine. Maybe the rings have not
    seated properly... in which case, you need to drive the shit out of the car
    for a while. Maybe someone put the wrong rings on the pistons... Maybe
    there's a valve stem seal that didn't get put on properly. There's a whole
    lot of things that could be the culprit..

    car 
    whole 

    Yea I have a hard time commutating and tend to be quite confusing.
    This shop is going to charge me $650.00++ to what they say fix it.
    I'm not giving them chance to bend me over any more. So I have other
    throttle body I will try and find someone to work on it. Should I buy a new
    dash
    pot ?? I'm a bit confused on if I need it runs great without??

    Thanks!!! Greg

    I wouldn't buy any more new parts until you find someone that will
    troubleshoot the problem for you.
    There has to be someone out there where you live that can do it right..
