Well really that doesnt mean your gettin gas in there. If you are gettin gas in the oil, itll smell like raw gas, and really, really bad, plus it will start to overfill the oil too ex. my bros pressure regulator wne t out, his oil was overfilled like 1.5 qts. It sounds like kinda the same problem i have, i burn about 1 qt a week, and now that im driving 100 miles a day, i burnt 3/4 a quart today. it coulfd also be a PCV probem, which that is what im trying the figure out right now

How many miles on the engine? If you pull the oil cap on the engine while it's running do you get a lot of smoke/blow by out of the filler neck?

did you clean or replace the PCV screen? going to 10w 40 isn't going to help....as for your oil turning black fast, try replacing the oil filter @ about 500 miles into the new oil it will clean up.. it may take a few for the engine to :clean up:
