Check guage light, no oil pressure

Anyone exerience this, My check guage light went on and I saw that I had no oil pressure. I pulled over and check the oil and it was about 2 inches above the fill line. The truck also was running a little ruff. I also started smelling diesel and noticed smoke comming from the breather under the truck. Any ideas on whats happening. Could there be diesel in the oil?

Thanks for the help.

YES there could...
Do not drive the Truck till you get it fixed....
I would guess an Injector stuck open or broke, sending Fuel into your oil...
Have it towed to a Cummins Diesel Shop or where you want, Unless you do the work yourself.

Tow it home. Major issues if you have no oil pressure. Bad injector thinned the oil and did some bad Juju.

Two threads. I'm reading in stereo. Bad injector. Tow or push it only.
