I definitely overfilled the oil. I drained the excess (after driving 30 miles). Now it won't start. Is there hope?

Hi there,

Ween to first work out what has gone wrong, worst case best check all compressions, check fore any unresolved fault codes, check for spark and clean plugs if not iridiums, check injector pulse and fuel pressure, do this if you can and report findings for more assistance.
