Trick question?
The oil level will go down by the amount of oil that remains in your
engine block and heads plus the amount of oil that remains in your oil
filter. The level will go up as the oil returns from those areas to
the oil drip pan.
Not trick. Maybe dumb. Larry suggests about 1/2 qt and Rob say
you have to check every car.
The oil in the block and heads doesn't count, since it is there
when you drain the oil. It is just the amount that goes into the
new filter that I'm curious about. The filter is pretty small.
Guess I'll measure and see.
Thanks,
Richard
