1989 Chevy Beretta fuel system question!!!?

I have an 89 Beretta with a 2.8L V6. Although the car has 130K miles, the engine has less than 20K. It has sat for 3-4 years. I have now given it a complete tuneup (all fluids, plugs, wires, filters), changed the ignition coil, fuel pump, fuel lines, brake lines... you get the point. I can get the engine to start, but once I do the gas seems to flood out the engine. To the point that gas is now mixed in with the oil. I noticed this when the engine running and oil began overflowing from the dipstick. The car WILL run, but there is definitely a good amount of gas in the oil, that was not there before since I just changed the oil. My thought is fuel injector stuck open, a seal gone bad, or maybe the fuel pressure regulator gone bad. I am of course just guessing. The last thing I had done to it was exchanging the fuel pump. Maybe possible the fuel pump sending unit could have been damaged or maybe the fuel pump itself is malfunctioning and wont quit sending fuel? Any thoughts??????1989 Chevy Beretta fuel system question!!!?Fuel injector's bad stuck wide open and this is bad don't run this car long with this problem it will wash the cylinder's and it will take out your rings. this is symptomatic of bad or old gas. You could try a fuel injection serves but sounds like a lose lose situation. good luck.Oh ya I watched a 69 GTO Blow the valve covers Right Off and dented the guys pretty hood .The fuel pump diaphragm leaked fuel into the crank case and and Kaboom!!!

sounds like a fuel pressure regulator, or even a possibly a blown intake or head (most likely intake) gasket that is allowing the fuel to mix with the oil

your guesses are preety good,more than likely fuel injector stuck open,for your crankcase to have that much fuel to the point of overflowing out of the dipstick also pcm commanding injectors open or debris in the injectors,be careful have an extinguisher handy you could accidentally ignite that excess fuel
