Gas/Oil Contamination ?
 
I had to replace the fuel pump on my 307 and discovered that the diaphragm was leaking fuel into the oil pan. I had just replaced the oil and filter less than 100 miles prior. Is the filter still ok or do you recommend replacing it also ? Oil level was a bit higher than max on dip stick.

Yup, it has gasoline-diluted oil in it, as well. NOT good for bearings.

$10 for a filter or $$$ for an engine... seems like an easy choice.
