NEED HELP WITH TOO MUCH OIL IN CAR!!!!!!! HELP!!!! 850 1993

What's done is done, you've done your best to correct the situation.

If no one has any specific advice or cautions, I'd get under and clean up as much as possible. Clean from the top also, look your engine over good, checking for oil. Pull the spark plug cover and look/clean under it.

Perhaps the oil dripping was vented somewhere, or was pushed past a seal without doing permanent damage.

Examine the car as often as you can for the next few days after you clean it, if there is a leak, then you can plot a course of action.
