Like the deal about rotating the rocker shafts for adjusting Jake detent. (In the manual, but not accurate) That was just one of the many maladies they said could be caused by overfilling.....

YOu put enough oil in there over the mark, and eventually the crank will start rotating in it,... and it WILL FOAM UP!. There is a point where it will do this,.. but it is not as sensative as most would think.
