Default HOW MUCH OIL

Just bought a 95 hatch CX (non v-tech) that did not have an owners manual with it. Want to know how many qts I need to put in it when changing the oil.

Hayne's manual says 3.5 quarts. Just make sure it's at the correct level on the dipstick.

Do you really measure out 3.5 quarts before you fill it? WOW!

The dipstick has marks on it for a reason. Lol

Well when you get paid 8 bucks an hour for doing oil changes it is something to laugh about.... and wtf is the matter with someone laughing? I laugh cuz it's a job doing oil changes, and its a shitty job... not asking you to laugh with me.
