Undo the oil plug at the bottom of the oil pan. It'll be in the lowest place there and relatively easy to see and get to. Remove it slowly and don't take it out completly, but only just enough so that oil starts trickling out. Let a cup or so out and run the plug back in "finger tight" for now. Check the oil level. If it's still a bit high, repeat 'til engine oil is at the correct level. Be sure to snug up your oil drain plug when you're done - but not too tightly!
