@gtreanor this "oil dip stick popped off and smelled of a lot of gas" sounds like a bad head gasket, blown rings or piston damage. Do a compression test or a leakdown test and let us know what you find out. It will also help if you can identify the engine and give us the year and model of the cart. If you need to you can post pictures of any engine plate etc. with your QUESTION. That way we can see what you see Adding images to an existing question
