I'm getting ready to put my 70 back on the road. Only drove around the block previously before a brake overhaul 1 1/2 yrs ago swelled into a front end/cooling system restoration. Anyway, I just drained the old oil (remaining from prior owner who claimed to have changed it just prior to sale to me) and it smells of gasoline.
Should I be concerned? Is this a sign of an impending fuel pump failure? If fuel did get into the oil, could this have caused any damage? The car ran well when I test drove it although it was a short/ slow drive because of the brakes. Could the smell just be normal? Your comments and suggestions are appreciated.
