Half quart over in oil, is that okay?

No it's not OK. That's why they have a dipstick. To make sure people set it correctly. As much over as you are I wouldn't be surprised if you sucked oil into the intake and gummed up the MAF sensor and ruined it.

I'd drain it. If it is over filled and starts frothing, kiss your engine goodbye. For $5, it is a couple thousand dollar insurance policy.

I put more than a half quart in my Honda Accord and it worked just fine. No need to worry.

Can't choose a best answer because they all are good .

2005 Freestar. Thought it took almost 6 qts like my Duratec in my othrr Ford. Maybe half quart over and couple hundred miles from home on vacation. Should I buy a 15mm box wrench for a few bucks and drain it off, or is it not a big deal.
