How does a car run with too much oil?
Engine damage – Too much lubricant in the system can cause pressure on the crankshaft to increase. This can result in oil entering the crankshaft exhaust pipe, running through into the combustion chamber, blocking the suction hose with oil soot and potentially leading to engine overload.
What happens to an engine with too much oil?
When too much oil is added, the level in the oil pan becomes too high. That allows a fast-moving lobed rod called the crankshaft to come into contact with the oil and essentially aerate it. The result is a foamy, frothy substance that cannot properly lubricate the engine.
How much extra engine oil is too much?
Bottom line, IMHO, don’t overfill your engine with oil. On first filling, err on the side of being low by about 1/2 quart or so. It’s easier to add a little more after a day than it is to try and remove 1/2 a quart that turns out to be too much.
