Hi,
This is my first post.
I was driving down the road at 70mph and my oil light came on.
Immediately turned off the engine and coasted to a near by gas station.
I checked the oil and it was overfull.  I started the engine again and no
oil light at first the a little bit of rattle so I turned it off again.
My brother towed me home and I called my favorite bug mechanic, who
suggested smelling the oil.. ....the oil was very gassy smelling.  My
injector/s were dumping gas when they should not be.
My question are:
Remanufacured bosch fuel injectors or new ones?
Replace all four or just one?
How to determine which one/s are doing the dumping?

any other comments please,
Thanks in advance for comments,
Ry Blaisdell
