I've seen a couple posts regarding these 4 strokes "making oil" and the general understanding is gasoline is getting past the piston rings into the crankcase.
The advice I've seen is to drain the oil to the recommended level.
That doesn't seem like a very good fix,as the oil is still contaminated, even an oil change is a waste of money and time because the first time you run it, the gas is going to contaminate the oil.
So what's the proper way to fix the problem? Could a simple valve adjustment do it? I'd rather not re-ring my pistons but it's hard to believe it's "normal" for any 4 stroke engine to "make oil"
