The good news is that antifreeze isn't in your system. The bad news in that gasoline doesn't belong in your oil. You may have to overhaul your TBI unit,
or replace it with a rebuild, IMO. After all the unit is 21 years old.Probably leaking past your piston rings when its parked, and going down into the oil pan,
would be my guess.Replacing a TBI is easy as pie. Even doing an overhaul is pretty easy to do, Easier them a multi port FI system by a long shot.
