All you want to know is............ at what point does it start dripping
out your drive flange seals.
I'd say if its full its full, if you overfill you'll just be smelling the
excess burning on your muffler or cleaning it from your driveway. Most
fluids expand slightly when heated so overfilling yields unpredictable
results.
