fuel in the engine oil & NYC repair places

My guess is that the float valve in the carburetor has started to back itself out and is letting gas seep past, down the intake manifold into the cylinders and eventually into the crankcase. This will be aggravated if you park on an incline with the gas tank higher than the motor. Take the carburetor apart and check the float valve.

It kinda helps when you tell us which VW you are talking about. ;-) Type 1 Type 2 Type 3 Type 4 or ???

All might have different components that might affect/cause your problem.

Usually a problem like yours comes from the fuel pump leaking into the engine case. Sometimes it comes from an overly rich mixture or a bad inlet valve or float. You have had all things changed. So maybe that NEW fuel pump is defective???? Oh I think if the engine or the carbs get hot the fuel could bubble out of the carb bowl and enter the throat of the carb and go to the cylinders.

I guess in the meanwhile you could install a fuel line lock and shut off the fuel going to the engine. :-) Find someone with a VW like you have and ask them where they take theirs for service.

good luck!

Yeah. Guess it would help. It's a 1974 VW Superbeetle.

Then I vote that the new fuel pump is also bad. Esp. since you have a different intake system now. Is it a Bosal fuel pump? AFAIK there are basically two fuel pumps that can fit on your vehicle, they both look similar but one that is for the alternator-equipped engine and the other for the generator. The pushrods can be different lengths and the gen pushrod is too long for the alt fuel pump and possibly could cause damage. Since your engine had the dual carb setup then it might have had the fuel pump for the generator-equipped engine.

Pull it off and smell the bottom of it. Also did this place pack the bottom on the pump with grease?

Sometimes it is better if YOU do the work yourself! ;-)

JMHO

Could be the fuel pump. Could also be the float valve in the carburetor. Sometimes the needle valve sticks open, sometimes the float valve starts backing itself out because it wasn't put in tight enough. In either case the result is the same. Gas gets past the float valve, runs down the intake manifold and into the cylinders. Eventually it seeps past the rings and into the crank case. First symptom is that suddenly your car turns over but won't crank (because the air/fuel mixture is so rich it will not ignite). You pop the engine lid and start poking around. Eventually you pull the dipstick and are surprised to see you've got more oil in the crankcase than you put in. This is very weird, you've used to seeing the oil level go down but you've never seen it go up. You rub a bit of the oil between your fingers and find that it is very thin and smells of gas.

If this is your problem, it will be exacerbated by park> Then I vote that the new fuel pump is also bad. Esp. since you have a

This isn't metro NYC, but about 50 miles NE of NYC in Bridgeport CT there's a place called Alpha Motors on Huntington Rd/River st. He used to specialize in acvws in the day.
