Sounds like your engine is doing it wrong. I would assume something is cracked. Thats usually how oil burns and then the oil cap smells like gasoline.

cracked head maybe?

You're not giving any specific information, like does it make any funny noises, overheat, run bad, etc. It could be many things but we need a better idea of whats going on.

Probably a ring problem.. Oil is probably not getting scraped off of the cylinder walls properly, and gas is probably getting past the rings into the oil. Could be other things too, but when someone says they have gas in their oil then that's the first thing that comes to mind.
When was the last time you changed your oil, and do you only drive very short distances at a time?
