Overfilled Oil Change
After a comedy of errors, I finally got my oil changed in my Ford Focus. When i checked hte level I am overfilled by a bit per my dipstick. Do I need to drain the excess oil or is a bit high ok (i.e. no lasting damage)?
FWIW, things I learned:
1-Do not fail to replace the cap on the new oil bottle when you open it to lubricate the o-ring
2-Do not fail to replace the oil filler cap on the engine.
