I changed to oil in my '75 2.0 teener just before garageing it for the winter.
Today I started it up and drove around the block. Crawled, more like. After Joe (my 911 neighbor who has has a few 914's also) and I looked at what was up, I realised that I have at *least* a quart to much oil in the engine. Normally, I have Micheal Jordan of Stuttgart Automotive do all my engine work, but I figured I could do an oil change myself just fine. The change - yes. The refill, well, that appears to be another story. Anyway - has anyone else ever done this? What is the best way to recover from it (other than have it towed it to Stuttgart Automotive and have them fix my mess, which I'll do if I can't correct this myself). Any one else been here before?
