after i installed my twins i had a couple bad oil leaks, so once i got them stopped i checked my oil and it was about 3inches above the full mark :thud: i know i didnt over fill it when i changed it!!! :CRY: so probably a bad injector you think?? coolant level is still good

dang sounds like a bad injector for sure. Probably cracked body or tip. Sorry to hear it good luck.

Did you change the oil before you did the install? Does it seem to be running fine? If it seems to be running good I'd change the oil and then keep an eye on it.

how does a bad injector make the oil level go up?? cant figure it out :thud:

It leaks fuel into the cylinder, washes through the cylinder into the bottom end, and fills up the crankcase. At least that I how I understand it. I haven't had that problem yet fortunately.

Yep thats what happens bad injector can not atomize fuel so it stays liquid and compression forces it pass the rings in to the crankcase.This will cause cylinder liner,ring and piston failure. Take injectors to the pump shop and have them pressure checked if they are breaking out good then you probably have a bad seal in the pump
