You will see increased oil consumption as oil will be drawn through valve guides, seals, etc internally and end up in the combustion chamber. Couple this with the possibility of oil aeration which will increase crankcase pressure, not a good thing. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>street_illegal_stang</b> <br /><small>Member # 1554</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2010,2,22,19,1,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> JohnB is correct, you can potentially have oil leaks after running it overfilled. timing cover seal,rear main seal etc. if you just changed the oil, start your car up and let it run for at least 10 seconds so the oil filter gets primed.<br /> let it sit for a minute then check your oil.<br />One quart overfilled isn't a show stopper, just drain a little.<br /> <br /> <small>[ March 22, 2010, 07:05 PM: Message edited by: street_illegal_stang ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
