In fitting a non-factory/CIS fuel injection system on a typeIV 2L, I unknowingly operated the fuel injectors while operating the fuel pump to test the system and control pressures and WUR . This resulted in the intake manifolds filling with gas (behind the closed valves for most cylinders) which has made it's way to the crankcase. I have not turned the engine over to start it or test it. I pulled the dipstick and the level was above the marks and did the sniff test and as I thought would happen, it smelled of gasoline. I also have a tuna can sump on the engine. My question is: how do I proceed? The oil is draining now and I have not messed with the tuna can. Advice needed.... TIA
