gas in oil

I retorqued the head and checked and reset valves.

Changed the oil and filter. Found the oil to be a bit watery and dark. Smelled like oil. I put a fuel regulator in line since the last time I changed oil. If the fuel pressure was too high, I imagine the float would not be allowed to close among other issues. Do I need to check the float and see if something is bent or should it be okay?

WIll run the car tomorrow and check the smell and consistency after drive. Might have to talk to Hap about going down on the jetting.
 
Go ahead and try it. You can always check the floats easly.
