AZglide, Bob M is on the right track for a starting point or diagnosis. We find this problem with cars coming into the shop in very cold weather. An engine needs to heat up to operating temperature before gasoline is efficiently burned, short hops when the automatic choke is on and the car not warmed up results in gasoline in the oil. The same is true of tractors, short runs in cold weather can cause this, a carburetor that is not adjusted properly and a leaking intake can cause this. I don't dispute others who have posted but Iwould start with the simplest..change the oil, check carb adjustment, shut the tank off after use, make sure the tractor warms up to operating temperature..even if you have to put a piece of cardboard in front of the rad. Make it worthwhile when you start the tractor so it does get hot. I had an Allis C once and it was a great little tractor but in the cold weather the oil always smelled of gasoline, despite everything I did ( I am sure it was the carb but could never solve the problem) Good luck from Mike in Exeter Ontario
