Greeting, so I purchased a used 2021 RXT-X300 this spring, ran it few times this summer and all was OK.. I happened to check the oil while on jet ski port and noticed it was over the full marks, but figured it wasn't level and didn't do the procedure, so left it. Now , winterizing it, I sucked out 5 quarts of oil, following the steps, 2 minute run time etc, and cranking it wide open throttle for 10 seconds a few times to extract more oil....Was it over filled ? Specs say 3.2 qts oil change with filter, capacity 5.3 qts.
RXT-X 300 oil overfilled ?

While we are on the subject and you get your oil level where it reads half way between the marks with the engine level and up to temp on a consistent basis, and then when its time to change your oil, usually pre storage, just put back in whatever quantity you take out using your graduated evacuator. Certainly takes the guess work out of the project and that 3.2 quarts spec is always pretty close. Think of it more as a oil refresh, not an oil change because almost 40% of the used oil stays in the crankcase.
