I don't think so - no sign of any damage to the stick. I think I may have too much oil in it so am going to start by letting the level go down a bit. It is an 8 qt. system and I calibrated with 8 qts. The engine was broken in on a dyno so there was oil in there before I calibrated. Anyone know how much oil remains in an FE that's been drained? If it is significant, I may be over-filled.
