Rising oil level
I noticed the other day (about 4 days after I changed the oil) that the oil level had gone up. I drained it back down, thinking maybe I put too much oil in it. And now, less than 100 miles later, it has risen again by about 1/2 qt.
What could be causing this ?? The oil won't burn (but I'm not sure if that trick works with diesel like it does with gas), and there are no signs of water in the oil or vice versa.
My limited oil burner smarts tells me it may be an internal pump leak, or maybe a bad injector.
Anyone care to point me in the direction I need to go to find & fix it ??
