Hi,

I recently changed my oil (one week ago)... And as the subject implies, the oil level is above the H mark... To be precise, the oil is half way up the letter H. I was hoping it would just burn off, but now I'm getting concerned.

So my questions are, is there some saftey margin built into the dip stick (like a little over the max mark is ok)? Should I do something to reduce the amount of oil?

I have a feeling that all is o.k., but I figured I better ask then be sorry.

Thanks!

I think you'll be ok if you are just a little over the max mark. If you are way above the max mark then you might see some smoke out the exhaust as it burns off.

 

xtc@9k,

Thanks for the quick reply... Guess I'll just have to burn it off at sears point next week... Hell YEAH!!!!!!!

Hey no problem. That will be definatly a way to burn it off. Taking hard corners and sloshing the oil around a lot will cause some to burn off. Don't worry about the plume of smoke behind
