Agreed. Make sure you are checking it after the machine has ran for 4-5 minutes and sat for 2.

If it's above the mark, drain some out, and see if that solves the problem. If the oil is high enough to contact the crank, it would spray it everywhere, including out the breather...

Be carefull not to over fill your oil. If it still does it then you have excessive blowby and need to rering the engine.

Did you recognise some loss of power or stalling when you had too much oil?
