GAS!!!!!!! where in the hell is it coming from and how is it getting into the oil supply!? any educated guesses would even be good for me at this point..

blown head gasket

that or a huge hole in a piston but it depends on how much gass and what the car is doing

where do you live in iowa and where do you go to get 93 i know of very few stations in my area that have it

all the BP stations have 93 for like 1.89.. and i was just wondering but wouldnt those problems cause it to drive les than optimally? i mean my car drives like a champ.. but its leaking pretty bad.. and it cant be good to have my oil guage say its like 3/4 of an inch HIGH...

cracked cylinder wall? Best bet would be to just pull the motor apart. Once you have mixing of chemicals, you're pretty much screwed already.
