Consumer Description

HAD AN OIL CHANGE AT A GREASE MONKEY. THEY NOTED THAT THE OIL STICK INDICATED THAT IT WAS ABOVE FULL AND SMELLED OF GAS. WHEN DRAINING THE OIL, THEY SMELLED A STRONG SMELL OF GAS AS WELL. OIL AND GAS ARE MIXING IN THE ENGINE WHICH IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BY HONDA FOR THE 1.5L TURBO ENGINE WHICH IS IN MY CAR. I AM CONCERNED THAT THAT GAS AND OIL MIX WILL CAUSE ISSUES RELATED TO THE ENGINE AND MAY CAUSE PREMATURE FAILURE.
