Too much oil in motor, how do i drain the excess oil out of the motor? I have a 1995 chevy lumina 3.1
Drain the oil, then put the proper amount back in.
Remove the drain plug on the oil pan and drain into a very clean container. Replace the plug and pour oil back into the engine till it's full. Save the remainder and use for top-off between changes. (If it's only a little overfull ...less than 1/2 inch above the line, don't worry about it...it's fine.)
Ok, the best way is to safely raise the front of your vehicle and pull the oil plug located on the bottom of the oil pan. this is a screw and it will come out fast so, you will need a bucket or something you can put under this oil plug that will catch the waste oil. once you remove the oil plug screw, the oil will flow. i would relieve the excess oil for about 5 to 10 seconds then, screw back on the oil plug on the pan and check the level.
repeat this procedure until you reach the desired level that is safe.
Please rate and have a great day:)
Yourgoing to have to drain it from the pan just pull the drain plug and let it all drain. change the filter and then replace with 5 quarts of 10w30 oil perferably quakerstate or valvoline brand
