Hi folks, Just asking if with fuel injection is it possible that petrol could be entering the sump because my oil level has risen and is now above the sight glass. It was near the bottom line before and nothing as been added.
I have not started any investigations as yet as only noticed it last time I put the bike away(cold) Its on my to do list over next few days starting with taking some oil out and of course smelling for petrol.
I had this problem with a XJR1300 carb model and found the petcock wasn't closing enough and a carb float valve wasn't seating right so the sump filled with petrol when the bike was parked.
I didn't think this could happen with fuel injection ???
