This is caused by the needle and seat not closing off the flow of fuel. The gas gets into the cylinder, fills it up, and when you turn the engine over it compresses the gas. This forces the gas to work its way around the end gaps in the rings and into the crankcase (and oil).

The only way gas would be able to get into the crankcase is when the engine is off, gas is leaking down thru the carb's and passing thru the rings into the oil. Does the engine run well ? Is there always gas in the oil, or did you have trouble starting the engine and flooded it. If it was flooded once, that would do it. Change oil and filter.

Because the carburetor on these motors are no good after a few years. The carburetor will spew large amounts of gas into the crankcase and you do need to change the oil about 3 times after this happens to protect your engine and get all the gas out of your crankcase. The replacement carbs are supposed to be much better than the ones supplied with your engine. A new carb is about $125.00 excluding labor.
What Is Positive Crankcase Ventilation?
An engine's combustion chamber does not have a perfect seal. At the time of ignition, some of the expanding gas leaks past the rings into the bottom (crankcase) of the engine, known as the Blowby Gases. This gas contains oil and partially burned fuel that can pressurize the bottom half of the engine, leading to blown oil seals and making it harder for the engine to work.The Positive Crankcase Ventilation system allows a route for these gases to be scavenged and passed back through the engine for consumption. It reduces emissions and keeps the engine from over pressurizing.
Why does oil smell like gas but compression is good?
