before I chnaged the oil I read the stick and it was reading at about 3/4ths. I drained the oil and put in about 4.5-5 qts in. I did a reading on the stick and its not even showing! well it is but at the very very bottom of the stick. I turned the key to accessory and the oil level gauge dropped down (i did not start the engine).
one thing I did notice is that when adding oil the oil was slow to go down that long tube, so I am just assuming that its going to take a little longer to get a good reading vs a car where the oil goes straight into the crankcase?
