[QUOTE="flatbottomman, post: 464232, member: 24543"] I pulled the dipstick and oil/gas came squirting our. So yep, gas in oil. I drained the oil/gas, refilled it with fresh oil, and it cranked up on the first pull. I let it run for a few minutes and changed the oil again. I think we’re all good now. Can Ijust leave the fuel tank vent open all the time to prevent this? [/QUOTE]
