You just had a lesson there. I don't shut mine off until everything is settled for two reasons. To have a chance to pull it out and also to keep fluids where they are supposed to be in the motor as long as possible.Also Jeeps have a nice little vent cap for the diff's and transmission and transfer case. They have a real fine screen in them that you occasionally have to clean, but they vent ok if you keep them clean and if liquid hits them it clogs the screen only allowing an occasional drip out. If the motor leaks that is not good, because if oil gets out, dirt is getting in. Seal it.I have had my rig on its side for over 45 minutes on a steep side hill and after righting it, there were no leaks and the motor started right up.
