Default Too much oil!

Hi,

I have a Honda Civic 1996 DX with 162,000 miles. This car has been good for years but now I am having some minor problems. I need help.

This car does not tell me how much oil is in the engine sometimes. After changing the dirty oil I put in 3.5 quartz. I let the car sit for a while and check how much oil is inside. The level stays at the first notch as if there is almost no oil inside. Thinking that there is not enough oil in the engine I add more. I have now put too much oil in the engine. After driving it around the level is reading over the maximum amount.

How bad is this? What should I do now?
