My brothers engine (y8 head w/ jdm d15b vtec bottom) is smoking a lot, he just recently swapped the motor in and he put in too much oil, where it says the oil is full on the dip stick, it is like 2 times that, so its about 2 times more than it should be at. would that cause it to smoke? we were thinking it might be the stem seals too

thanks

 

Yeah, you will get really high oil pressure, forcing oil through the tube on the valve cover leading to the intake. It'll then burn.

 

haha, my question to you is this. If you know that the oil is that much too full.......why is he still driving the car around? Drain some of that shiz out. haha
