I have a problem with my 91 eclipse turbo. I have found that there is gas in my oil when i take out the dip stick. I took the car to my mechanic and he says it is sending in too much gas. He thinks it may be the computer but is not sure...does anyone have any ideas?
 
Well it's hard to say, It must be getting to much fuel, but why could be several things. It could be a pluged return line, they do have a filter on the tank, or it could a bad pressure regulator. I'd check those before going the computer route. You could also have a stuck injector wich would lead to one of your plugs fouling. And even possibly if it is electrical, it could be the o2 sensor. But these are just possibilities. I have had several of them happen.
