I did a oil change but forgot to drain the pan and now I have oil leaking through air intake

Question

It's blowing out thick white smoke and rattling pretty hard, I have motor oil coming out of my air intake and I can't put the air conditioning on cause it just shut the car off. I don't know what to do! And I need it for work. It's a 2003 Acura TL 3.2 v6 engine

Answer 1

Sorry you're having such a hard time. This should be pretty simple. Just drain the oil. Fill it back to the recommended level and then run it. You'll have some slight after effects, but it should be fine. It isn't good to run your engine with extra oil (especially not double the amount). It can cause damage to an extent, but I doubt there's any serious damage. The best you can do is just drain all the oil (get a big pan) and then replace with the recommended amount.
