Isn't the sump capacity only 4 quarts?



Is your charcoal canister (if you have one) clogged?B  That could also cause
elevated pressure inside the block.

well, I pulled the pan, cleaned it, painted it, put in a new gasket, and
reinstalled. B oil is indeed coming out the dip stick tube. B all that work
may have been for nought!

can I relieve that oil pressure somwhere/somehow?

I replaced the filter and added 5 qts of oil - was that too much?
