Fuel diluter - gas smell after 400 miles on oil

I agree! PimTac needs more sense of humor.
Does Walmart sell that?

People still say dude? I haven't heard that in years.

I'm not, but as I said I dont remember this smell when used Pennzoil. This is my first run with M1


The brand of oil does not effect the degree fuel dilution. That is determined by the engine matrix. Some oils may handle fuel dilution better than others concerning wear metals in the oil.

People do say it in CA and WA

Another overused word in WA - fantastic.
Since I've moved here, I hear it 2-3 times a day

I haven't stopped saying dude since I was a teen in the '80s.
A particularly close friend is a dudeman.

All oil smells a little bit like gasoline. Did the level on the dipstick rise? Any other factors? If you're worried, have an oil analysis. If the oil level isn't rising, I personally wouldn't worry.
