i made the biggest fcuk up tonight since iv owned the car (and i make a few!) i over filled the oil then strated her up. it gurgled at me! so i drained the oil and put some more back in- the right amount this time. it gurgled some more and fired out some smoke! what the hell am i goin to do? what is my problem? (apart from chronic stupidity!)

some oil may have got into the pistons/combustion chamer start it up again and let it idle for a while see what happens it may clear
