Default Oil over full on my Vanguard 23hp

I filled the oil above the full mark on my Vanguard 23hp and the level is now where where the dip stick has the the first twist. Is this a problem? Thanks, Ted

Yes, can cause ring problems on any engine, causing oil burn trouble.

Try not to overfill any engine. Makes the pump work harder and can cause problems with seals.

also cause aeration in the oil.....overfilling is just as bad as running too little....
