I have been chasing an excess fuel delivery condition for quite a while and may have found my problem. I hope. Bad wire from cylinder head temp connector and ECU.

I have changed oil twice now because of all of the gas that has gotten into the cylinders and the oil sump. Before I do this again, is there something I should do to clean up the gas residue that remains?

Do any of these two make sense?

Remove spark plugs and put a little oil in the cylinders and turn engine over by hand to recoat the walls with good clean oil?
Do nothing and just leave it all open for a few days to air out on its own?

Any other suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
