FYI: between the L and the H it only takes one quart MAX to get from one to another. It's not "Low" as in 1 of 5 quarts. It's "Low" within operating spec (4 qts).

FWIW, I didn't think the noob question was a bad one. He at least used the "search" function.

i saw an article back when i was in college of a woman who seriously filled the entire crankcase with oil......to the brim. she kept filling it until it was to the very top, then she drove it and wondered why oil was foaming all over her engine.

lol.

Just let some out to get it between the H and the L. Contrary to popular belief, the oil is NOT low until below the L.
There are like five "xxxxx" marking between the L and H marks. I always fill it up to the 4th "x" because it'll be at the 5th x when hot or when sitting in the garage for more then 3 days without driving. Correct me if this is wrong.

You idiots have spent more time telling this n00b he's an idiot than it takes to change the oil in a fleet of S2000s. Shut the **** up and let him talk.

Closing time.
