what is the consequence of having too much oil in your engine.
I am trying to figure out why I got alot of oil on the driveway, for the first time ever (this quantity) after going for a long fast blast? I am sure this is an easy one for most. thanks in advance.... T |

Pardon the seeming-unrelated question--Do you have the thermostat flaps on your engine hooked up?
If not, is the pulley wheel still there? If not, you need to find the hole where the mounting bolt used to go, and put a bolt in it. That's a through-hole to the inside of the engine, and will spill oil. Alternate question: Got the breather hoses into the heads hooked up to anything? Are the hoses tight? Third question: Added oil lately? Maybe miss the filler neck with just a little oil? "Just a little" coming out of the bottle looks like "Exxon Valdez" when it gets down to the driveway... Uhm, not that I know anything about any of these from personal experience or anything. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) --DD |

Thanks Dave
thermostat wings are on and the pulley is there. breather hoses good (just replaced all of them) did not miss the oil filler thingy lately. I was "hoping" that too much oil would cause it to blow all over the place.......no ?? yes?? Comments? T (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |

Too much oil will find it's way out of the engine at sustained High RPM.
