a quart isnt in -insane- amount - but it's definitely not good. I've heard of auto x'ers putting in an extra half quart..

I would drain it out. You could probably hurt your rings.

refilling and adding the correct amount is the way to go.

Hope you didn't drive and run it alot w/ to much oil in it.
Good luck and hope all is well..

ive seen a teg with 7 quarts of oil in it. On the freeway i had to change lanes because all i could see was black cloud, i had nothing to do with him tho. He decided to burn it out, i would definately not run it like that. Maybed you drop the oil into a bigger measuring cup until you get close to one quart
