You want to do this ASAP. If you don't...all that gas will wash off all the years of buildup and sludge from the inside of your engine...then it will plug up your oil strainer intake. It's a tough battle... I know I had to change the oil and filter until I found out it was that $33.00 fuel pressure regulator. I changed the oil 3 times before I found the culprit. If it's injectors you'll just have to run the engine and then pull the fuel rail and check each injector to see if it drips. If it's the regulator, the diaphram inside it blows out and gas is pouring into the engine and you'll know by the way you've been filling the car up after 2 days of normal driving.

take care of this now- Good luck. Let us know.
