hi . I recently put new oil and coolant in my car. the oil level was almost empty. i thought i was doing the right thing by putting around 4 ltrs of oil in as the car was using oil fast anyway. now it seems there's too much oil in and there is smoke and a little shuddering ..
is there a way of draining oil?
or is it somethings else?

There is a drain plug at the bottom of the engine sump, if it is over full it will be a cause of excess smoke and if excessive oil in engine it can damage the engine as well, so drain it and correct the level.
