RE: [T3] Gas in the crankcase

It's probably a torn diaphragm in the fuel pump.

Failing that, it could be *really* severe blow-by, but it'd lªF]¼
smoking *tremendously* to create that much gas in the case.  You could have
a stuck compression ring, and that's causing it.

	As I'm draining the crankcase, the oil is coming out REALLY fast.
	Thought this was a bit odd, since the car hadn't been started in a
while.
	Put my fingers in the stream and bring it to my nose, STRONG gas
smell.
