Assuming no glaring fuel system issues, and being attributed to cold weather / frequent short tripping, how permanent is any fuel dilution that may occur during an OCI?
To clarify, is oil capable of "reseting itself" after reaching full operating temperature on a longer drive, to burn off any fuel or moisture that may have ended up in the oil, or do parts of fuel combine with the oil permanently to the point where it can not simply be burned off, leading to a thinner cSt (like oil shear) even after reaching operating temps?
