So I added the last bit of the 10 qts. I then drove it around a bit. I came home and checked the dip stick and a puff of smoke came out of the dipstick hole. But the stick reads the oil at the top of the x's. But I'm worried that once it cools down, I'll be over the x's. Any suggestions?

Once it cools down, you will contract on your dipstick not expand! check it in two hours after cools down?
