How old is the unit? Gas in the oil indicates sticking or broken piston rings. If it has sat for a long period, best thing to do is spray some sea foam into the cylinder, run it under heavy load for 30 min and hope it seats. If it still does it, chances are your ring is craked. But most often they stick allowing blow by. Also make sure plugs are clean, and not fuel fouled.

Gas is coming from my crankcase on 1997 polaris xplorer 300 whats the problem

if this is the issue, suspect your fuel pump diafram is perished
also check if fuel is getting into your engine oil, check the dipstick and see
if the oil level is hight or its thin and runny oil smelling of gas,

if this is the case, recommend changing the fuel pump and changing the oil, in that order.

I hope this was useful.

My trimoto 125 mixes gas in the oil whats theproblem

Gas in oil usually gets there in a 4 stroke engine in one of 2 ways- through the induction system from a defective valve in the carburator, or a ruptured diaphragm on a fuel pump that is attached to the crankcase. If the carburetor has a float bowl, the float may be faulty, the needle and seat may be faulty or dirty, otherwise the diaphragm types can have either or both types of valving to control fuel flow into the engine.

I have a 2000 lsi sedan 4cyl runs excellent good compression mileage has got considerably worse down to 22 hwy any ideas

*Oil change.
*Accurate tire pressure. (highway drivers experience better MPG with tire pressure 2-3 pounds higher than whats called for on tires)
*Tune up/spark plugs
*Injectors clearer/replacement. STP injector cleaner
Bad fuel/low grade/gas supplier might be bad. Try new gas station
