viceversa Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 someone in the family overfilled the Loyale, 1.8L engine, seems about 1 qt too much. Should I drain it? It ticks at low speeds. No problems thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Yes - too high and the crank will beat it into a foam. Foam does not lubricate.... GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 Ditto, get the extra Qt out, it will also cause drag and reduce horse power, but that is the least of your worries. if its ticking and it didn't used to, its because of foam getting to the lifters, not too much of a good thing.
