I surmize that the oil probably blew past the rings and was compressed out. Did you have oild residue coming out the tailpipe as well?
Nothing coming out of the exhaust I'm happy to report.
I've taken out the oil and replaced it with the correct amount of oil.
Seems to run fine but I'll have to wait until thursday to give it a proper test.
