Default oil change.

do u guys add any additional oil, or should i just use 4qrts(b18b1)?
thinking of using 10w40 pennzoil, and a fram oil filter. Is this a good weight to use of oil, and is there a better oil filter to use also? This is my first time changing the oil on the teg, do u guys just lift the car on the driver side? tia.

use as much as you need to to get the oil between the two dots on the dip stick.

Hmm, fill to the top dot since that is full. Unless you want to be running low on oil all the time.

so i should add the 4qrts. let it sit, if its not up to the 2nd dot just add more.

10w40 pennzoil, fram filter< any input?
also the best (safest/easiest) lift point, center lift point, or the one by the driverside wheel. thx, guys.

Well, you are supposed to check the oil when the motor and oil are warm and the car is off.

4 quarts will fill it though, so do not worry about it.

Also note that if your car is sitting for a long *** time (like a week) and can drain (plug out or oil pan off) it will take more than 4 quarts.

I know this should be obvious, but I thought I'd through it out anyway.
