I'm seeking some advice. I have a Honda BF45A 1994 and I recently had the carbs rebuilt. I've changed the oil several times and it seems like there's gas in the oil. It smells like gas anyway. The oil turns bad immediately. I trolled maybe for 3-4 hours and it comes out black and smells like gas. I noticed some foam (kind of yellowish) under the oil fill cap. The engine is running great though. Any suggestios?

What you should do is get a hold of the dealer and ask them about the problep the honda's had with having a fuel pump leaking into the head which will let gas go rt into the oil as well not sure what went bad most likely the rubber parts in the pump it self work on alot of motors with this prob good luck. loudawg
