Olaf, you've probably already added oil, but you can just add 1/4 qt. at a time, until you get to the gasket...which I hope you will soon! It was fun and easy...sort of...found out about my mistake about 4 months later...the alt wasn't bolted on the top...I'm really talented that way!
oh my. the mighty delmarco is asking for help?
Here we stand by our man, and Del is one of them. You weren't around when he got his head caught in his rear seat armrest, Jason. We all worked to help him get it unstuck...over the internet, mind you. When it was all over, he added a cupholder to hide the evidence!
Be nice to him or I'll have to find some way to mess with you! lol (but seriously!)
not to hijack the thread, but is there a way to check if the yellow oil light works? i've never seen mine turn on.
You could siphon out 1 qt. of oil, or a little at a time. Is there some reason you don't think it's working? It does signal when it's failing, like mine did consistently, after every start for over a year. Yours is undoubtedly fine. If you did that, though, by the same reasoning, you'd want to test many critical sensors? Oh, also, Autozone does free code reading...many things will signal their failure...not sure about oil light, but maybe...don't think I had a code...I had a warning light (telling me sensor was bad).
