Hi guys,
I recently bought a 94 Toy Camry (4 cil, 2.2 engine), and changed the oil and filter. Passed smog check OK, but after only 40 miles of driving, the oil arose above "F" lever with about 1/4". The oil is also more liquid (it lost viscosity) and smells like gas.
I assume the oil got contaminated with gas. The engine is fuel injected and the oil was at half way between "L" and "F".
What do you think it is, and what should I do? (Head gasket, injectors, etc?). BTW, I even changed the spark plugs and air filter.
Thank you for any suggestions.
