I'm getting fuel in the oil (stock 350). What could be causing this?

Thanks - Michel

ruptured fuel pump diaphragm will do that for you, do you also have oil in the fuel?? Look for oily residue in the carb

change your fuel pump change your gas filter and clean the carb and youll be good as new maybe $35 in parts all told

I'm not sure about being good as new.

I once had a 65 Chevelle Malibu and it ruptured the diaphram and filled the oil pan with gas. The bad part was the engine was a very nice 327 that used no oil at all. After this, I couldn't keep oil in it. The gas totaled the rings and bearings. I got pissed and sold the car. Man, what would I give to have that car now?? That was back in my young and dumb days.
