Long story short, I had a fuel pump go bad the last time I drove my '64 Valiant (273.) Over the winter I replaced the fuel pump. Today I drained the oil and, as I kind of expected, what came out was the consistency of weak coffee and stunk of gasoline. What is the best course of action now? I had planned on completing the oil change, and planning to do another one in the near future. Should I expect bearing troubles, or anything else - and am I nuts to try to start her up after just an oil change?
