If you overfill the engine oil you can damage the engine. The crankshaft will make contact with the oil causing it to form a froth of oil and air which is a poor lubricant.

Where is the oil pan on a 04 Saturn L300?

The oil pan is the point at which oil pools when the engine is turned off, and MOST of the oil drains to that point when the engine is running. The oil pump pumps a stream of oil out of the oil pan into portions of the engine that need lubrication. Since the oil pan is designed to capture oil as it drains out of the engine, the oil pan must be at the lowest part, and as such, the oil pan hangs from the crankcase and is always underneath the crankshaft. To find the oil pan, just find the engine, climb underneath and look for the big part that has a drain plug... that's the oil pan.


Can you remove an oil pan with the motor still on?
