Rachel, I am so glad that you mentioned this, as I have had oil leaking from my Honda after transporting it inside my tow vehicle and I was certain that it was "right side up". I now suspect that when I was jostling it about some oil was shaken out. I will be a little more careful in the future. steve Steve R.
