If you put too much oil it may cause foaming and leaks. Run your engine and see if there are air bubbles on the dipstick.

Re: too much oil? (timmy8151)

there have been many stories of people who have overfilled their oil and not long after their engine blew up. I usually run mine about 1/2 quart high just for the fact that I'm in vtec alot (which burns oil)
