8 qts of thin, gassy oil . . . 700

Just started to work on my 745t this morning, and the first thing was to change the oil. I just drained about 8 quarts of very thin, gassy oil from the car. Had just topped it off with oil a week ago, so, given how much we use it, and its oil consumption, a drain should have been 4 quarts or so.

I'm guessing that whatever the cause, it was flooding the daylights out of itself.

Now, have to find out whether it was a wiring problem, a computer problem or a bad injector.

Guess I'm going to have a fun Memorial Day weekend!
