    Post fuel in oil question

    I discovered fuel in my oil the other day from a faulty petcock. I have drained the oil and removed the filter, I was wondering if there is anything I should do before I refill the oil and start the bike again?

    As long as it is fully draine then a fresh fill should be fine.
    You could flush it out with a cheap few quarts of oil then re-drain and use good oil.

      repair or replace the faulty petcock
      install a filter and put the drain plug back in

        You've got a needle and seat passing fuel as well as the faulty petcock. Make sure you do a complete diagnosis and repair before you suffer a hydrolock or set the bike and/or house on fire.
