Ive checked and I can't find this topic covered previously so hopefully Im not repeating an earlier post.
Castle Combe on the 2nd Sept will be my first Porsche Club track day and my first in my 993.
I ready the notes....
Lubricant levels Engines used at high revs may consume more oil than under normal use. If necessary, bring a can to topup if you know the engine is consuming oil. Do not over-fill the engine oil and, for earlier 911 models, keep it no higher than 3/4 mark on the dipstick when hot. Any higher and it may overflow when the engine is hot, and the oil expands. The resulting mess is embarrassing (for the driver) and may lead to the car being taken off-track. It is also advisable to check the transmission oil before the event.
I am aware that following a 2000 mile trip to Scotland and back to Devon that I topped up my oil level and it is at the top.
According to the advise above I have to much oil in the engine. So what is the easiest way to remove a bit.
Plug down by the filter near right hand rear wheel ? (dirty knees?)
Suck it out of the dip stick pipe ? (oily lips)
Other suggestions ?
Track day prep advice appreciated.
