Volvo: volvo 240, volvo 240, ruth ruth


Question
I bought a Volvo. I noticed an Injector was broken. I replaced it. I changed the oil and Tried to start it. There is gas in the oil ? The engine sounded good initially then died. I checked the oil again after and it had gas in it? Can I save this car?

Thanks,
Ruth

Answer
Ruth,
Good chance to save it. That is if the oil has not had gas in it too long where it did not wash out the bearings. Is there any engine knocking that you can hear? It happens where at times the oil gets saturated with gas and if you change it soon enought you can save it. Good luck.
