Re: [Chrysler300] Carburetor Problems

[Michael Moore <mmoore8425@xxxxxxx>]

James, when I had this problem on a different car, I removed the plugs and turned the engine over to get the gasoline out of the cylinders. 

In my case, I had lots of gasoline in the cylinders, in fact my crankcase was full of gasoline mixed with oil!  

After I spun the engine around, I drained the crankcase oil gasoline mix into a washtub. I installed fresh oil, new filter, installed the plugs (good time to change them)  and that was all.

I know I have to change the oil and filter my question is I wonder if anyone has had this problem and could guide me in the procedure of how I get gas and contaminated fuel out of the cylinders, and heads?
