Oil in distributor
I'm getting oil in my distributor. I am thinking the engine is over filled with oil. I just put on an 8 quart pan and filed it with 8 quarts. It shows high on the dip stick, but I put in exactly 8 quarts. Do I believe the dip stick or the pan? Would oil in the distributor be an indication of too much oil?
Thanks for the help
