I think i know the answer to the question but heres some history. Jeeps been starting like crap since i got up here. Last week it wouldn't start on me for the 8th time, 1st time after i rewired some stuff. I sat for an hour before trying to start it again and it still wouldn't start it only turns over. Then i tried about maybe 10 minutes later and it stopped turning over. Found the started jammed today and it starts now BUT the oil smelled like GAS. I also noticed the air filter was very dirty, would the air filter being so dirty have caused it to run so rich that it started dumping fuel into the oil?
