Hey you's guys, I just bought a 1998 contour, and the dude I bought it from always had it serviced at the dealership he bought it from new. Anyway, he had the oil changed just before I got it, and after I got home I checked it and it looked a little overfull.

It was not on flat ground though, and I'll check it again tomorrow on flat ground, but what could be damaged from overfilling an engine?

P.S. Does it matter if I check my oil cold or do i have to warm it up first. The manual didn't seem to say, but I thought y'all might know.

Thanks in advance
