If you are 2 qts over full on oil you might have a plug or coil or fuel pressure regulator to throw fuel into the engine at an alarming rate causing the fuel to blow by the piston rings and get into the oil. First you must smell the oil see if it smells like gas then you must change the oil and filt NOW. Investigate to see if its gas cause if it was water you would have white oil for sure..

Good luck
Oh stay with your original thread next time..
