Do you have a compression gauge? If you do, check the compression and let us know what it is. If you don't, borrow one from AutoZone or a friend.

With gas in the oil, I would not run the cart for long. However, so as to not ruin new, clean oil, we'll try to at least get it running on what's in there.

Does the engine have spark now? Have you had to choke it a lot lately?

Mine had gas in the oil back in May, but it still ran, Smoked BAD, took the carberater off took it apart and cleaned it, and it has run fine every since.

I had this problem on a lawnmower and this was the problem as well.

before you buy a motor try replacing the fuel pump..

they can break, allowing the gas to flow in through vacumn and fill up motor..
