Default Gas in oil!?!

Ok well i got done swapping motors a few days back and went to pire my car up today... Well it wouldn't start.

after about 10 min of cranking I realized I forgot to hook up all the sensors in the back..

well now it will kind of fire when the throttle is to the floor. but not actually start.

NOW I HAVE ALOT OF GAS IN THE OIL! Did that much gas actually go by the rings!!!!

Now think the reason it wasn't firing after i got the sensors hooked up i think it is flooded!

Now im gonna have to drop out $70 worth of oil with zero run time out of it.

Wanted some opinions on this.

You have a leaking injector or injectors!!!
pull the spark plugs out, put out all your cigarettes and remove the plugs, pull the fuel pump relay and crank the car over a few times, I bet you'll have gas shooting out one or more spark plug holes!

if you just swapped motors I'll bet your injectors are not seated and are jump dumping fuel into the cylinders. Gas is just pouring into the cylinders and leaking past the rings

What oil are you using to brake in a new moter that costs $70? Also when I swaped out my injectors I had a puddle of fuel under the car after first start up I loosened up all the rail bolts and had to wiggle and push 2 of my injectors in to the intake more. Puddle stoped.

Im gonna buy some really cheap oi tomorrow and put it in lol.



I pulled the the fuel pump relay fuse and the darn car started after a few cranks and kept running for about 5 minutes, lol. shouldn't it have ran out of gas?

Now it wont start again! gonna have to make sure they are all seated good.

Think it might be the injectors... I just put on some used siemens deka 60# injectors (yes i tuned for them).... Not sure what else it could be!

When this happened to me before on a different car it was a bad injector oring. I opened the oil filler cap and could get high off the gas fumes. The oil had the viscosity of water.

I messed up big! I think i figured the problem out!

I made a mistake of entering g/s into my Injector Flow Rate vs KPA instead of lb/hr!!! LOL

Here is how large the diiference in numbers is!
g/s =
8.474866

Compared to

lb/hr =
66.86285

NO WONDER I HAVE GAS IN MY OIL!!!!

Damn gas tank is empty, lol.... Gotta drain the oil and put some gas in it and see what happens!
