Just a passing thought to the community. When changing out the engine oil there is the extra quart that stays in the upper portion of the oil pan. After draining the hot oil out and by adding a quart of oil at room temp would flow down to the front of the oil pan and displace some if not most of the oil left in the upper portion of the pan. Would the cooler oil sink and cause the hotter oil to flow over into the side of pan with the drain? I am sure at some point that the temperature difference would be null.
