carb cleaner in oil was created by donthaveakawman
during my valve adjustment I sprayed a bunch of carb cleaner in my spark plug holes and I am pretty sure some if not all ended up in the oil via blowby. I changed my oil at the beginning of this year with a k&n filter. 3 months or 3000 miles would tell me that i should change it.
is the carb cleaner a problem?

I've done the same on cars to clear heavy carbon out of the throttle body and cylinder. I always put in fresh oil after doing it to be safe.
