How do you know it's getting lots of petrol in the oil? What symptoms do you have?

If it IS petrol in the oil it can pretty much only be an injector not shutting off and draining the remaining fuel into the cylinder which then drains past the rings into the sump.

Has little or no effect on how it is running at the time, although monitoring fuel trims could show it up.

Hi sorry been busy. Thanks for replies.when you dip the oil it has about 1/2 litre to much,and you can smell it,drained it and you can see it in the oil.There is a guy on a web site who has the exact same symptoms as mine ,he has changed the pump,injectors,etc still the same.I thought injectors to but no fault codes,no smoke out of the exhaust,engine runs well,thanks

A leaky injector won't give a fault code, won't smoke, and won't stop the engine running but will leak petrol into the cylinder & down past the rings overnight to pool in the sump.
