Hmmm, very good thought Derek. I'll tell him to check the fuel pump and to
check the oil for fuel contamination. Thanks.

I had a mule which had a bad fuel pump diaphragm....fuel does displace oil
causing oil under pressure to bubble forth out of various orifices. A fuel
pump rebuild and new oil/filter and we were back on the road...Derek
