Why am I getting gas in my oil? This really pisses me off, I just changed the oil and it has what seems a lot of gass, oil very diluted.

I've seen this happen before. Not on a 914 but the result is the same. The cause was a stuck carb. float or such that raw fuel was running down into the the oil pan. It sounds like a carb overhaul is needed. I agree... no not run this engine till the carb issue is dealt with or everytime you start up you will be operating with parts in engine that have been washed clean by the gas in the oil.
Cheers, Elliot
