Default Fluid High

So I check my fluid level at Shell tonight.. its kinda high.. I'd say 1-2 quarts.

Still hammers 1-2 2-3 and locks up like new...

fluid still smells and looks new but did have a little froth on the top of the stick.

I plan on doing a fluid/filter change this weekend.

so can high fluid cause harm?

its a performabuilt lvl 2 and yank pt3600 btw.

Well if it hasnt been spewing I would wait till fluid change and correct the level and yes high fluid beyond a certain level can be as bad as low fluid as air get churned in it can cause crazy presure readings and performance.

what the hell do you mean spewing?

do you mean blowing seals high pressure? or over applying piston high pressure?

I havent checkd the pressure yet.. but thought about it.
