this is a term commonly refered to as "making oil" usually the cause of this is faulty fuel injectors, that allow fuel to drip into the combustion chamber the entire time the engine is off. the fuel then seeps past the piston rings directly into the crankcase. there are other ways of fuel entering crankcase, depending on the type of engine. a faulty mechanical fuel pump can also be a way for fuel to enter the crankcase.

What are the uses of fuel oil?
Fuel for ships and engines.
Can corn oil be used for diesel fuel?
Straight corn oil cannot be used directly as a fuel in any engines. It must first be refined in a similar way to the crude oil which comes from underground oil wells. One way is to use the corn oil as the raw material for the production of a fuel suitable for internal combustion engines: first ferment the corn oil and then distil the resulting "brew" to make ethanol. Ethanol is an alcohol that can be used directly as a fuel for gasoline engines and it can also be used as a good "fuel supplement" when mixed - in small amounts - with the normal diesel fuel that is used for diesel engines.
Two stroke engines pollute the air more than four stroke engines?
Yes, two stroke (or Two cycle) engines have oil that is mixed into the fuel to lubricate the motor's moving parts. Where as, in a 4 stroke engine the oil is separate from the fuel. When the fuel oil mix is burned in a two cycle engine more pollution is given off.
Where is the oil switch on a 1974 mustang?
it is under the fuel pump on the v6 2.8l engines
Why ports are used in two stroke engines?
To deliver fuel and oil too the cylinder.
What is a mix ratio in small engines?
Oil fuel mix ratio is different for different engines, please contact the manufacturer Fuel air mixture is the same @ 17 to 1 by weight.
What is the difference between fuel oil and lube oil?
Fuel oil is a blend of heavy intermediate products in a refinery to make a heavy fuel oil. Lube oil is processed from intermediate products to make an oil used for the lubrication of mechanical parts such as car engines, turbines, etc.
How do you make 4 stroke fuel?
The fuel used for both four stroke and two stroke engines is the same: gasoline. Two stroke engines require a small amount of two stroke oil be added to the fuel.
Can opti-2 2cycle oil be used for outboard marine engines?
Yes it can, but only in pre-mix 2 cycle engines. These are the ones that you add the oil to the fuel. If the engine is an oil injection model, there is an opti2 Injection oil available.
Explain why gas oil is cracked to produce gasoline?
To produce a higher octane fuel. A fuel that will power high efficiency engines.
Can you use the same oil in petrol and diesel engines?
If you mean motor oil, yes.
What engine uses a carquest oil filter 85258?
The CARQUEST 85258 oil filter can be used with multiple vehicle engines. This filter is for use on older engines that have a carburetor instead of fuel injectors.
