[LaAlexis]

Methods to handle overfilled engine oil include: 1. Remove the oil drain plug to release excess oil; 2. Use an oil pump to extract the excess. The functions of engine oil are: assisting in engine lubrication to reduce friction, cooling and temperature reduction, sealing to prevent leaks, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption. The steps for changing engine oil are: 1. Run the engine until it reaches operating temperature; 2. Engage the handbrake and lift the vehicle; 3. Unscrew the oil filter and drain the oil; 4. Apply new oil to the gasket of the new oil filter; 5. Pour new oil into the oil pan; 6. Check for leaks under the engine; 7. Lower the vehicle and check the oil dipstick, then start the engine; 8. Turn off the engine and recheck the oil level.
