Subject:      Too much Oil?
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;


Ok, so we were heading out of town and like normal I check the oil. It was getting dusk, so maybe it didn't need any or only half a quart. But I placed a whole quart in there.
   It does leak a little by the Oil filter. As me were on our trip this weekend. It leaked from all around the motor. WE checked it and by the time we got ready to come back today it was a half a quart low.
    Husband seems to think, If I had placed to much in there, the pressure might have made the rear main seal start to leak.
  Anyone have an idea about this?
THanks
