This is the August 31 problem, where you found 2 quarts of gas in the oil. There were a few responses to that.
My big concern is 2 quarts of gas in the oil. Really? Are you sure it's gas? And if it is, something very bad is going on. The only way to get gas into the oil is through the cylinders. And it is NOT the AIC or the AMM. The only way I can think of is if the FPR diaphram is totally ruptured, and you are pouring fuel into the intake through that hose. Or, one or more fuel injectors is stuck on - that would cause at least one cylinder to not fire.
To check the FPR - pull the thin vacuum line from the FRP to the intake off, and start the engine. If fuel pours out, it's the FPR. Boy, is it the FPR. If fuel doesn't come out, stop the engine, and you can do a more reasonable test. Suck on the hose going to the FPR. It should hold vacuum - be hard to suck on. If you can pull air through, it's a bad FPR.
I'd also pull the spark plugs and check. Do any of them seem wet with fuel?
