I know but I put 5 qts in and I am still a qt short. Thats why I am asking what could cause this.

 

What filter are you using?

 

Mobile 1 M-209 filter

 

I'm switching to Pennzoil Platinum...

I usually use Quaker State Full synthetic...

Got a 5 quart jug for 20 bucks today, at China-Mart.

I then bought a quart of that Marvel Mystery Oil...

I've read too many good things to not give it a shot...

My last oil change showed I had quite the amount of sludge from letting it sit so long, and the marvel mystery oil says it gets where regular oils can't... and since the Platinum says it removes up to 46% of sludge on the first oil change, I figured what the hell...

I only use Napa Gold (Wix) filter for my truck, I buy them in bulk when my local napa has their customer appreciation day, I get them for like 3 bucks a piece...

 

Dear God man, even with my blower lube lines and return until that barely takes a 1/2 quart, lol.

 

Did you find the fluid plus filter around here somewhere for 30 bucks???

 

Not yet man, I' going to check out the special Eric is talking about. I usually buy mine at Walmart and its usually right at 34.00 with fluid and filter. I will let you know if I find anything local.
