I know I'll get slammed for for this but I use a Zippy Lube for my oil changes, I have my reasons. I know the guy that works there and trust him but last time he was not there. Long story short when I checked the oil level later on it was about an inch and a half over the full mark. I went back and had him remove some and get it closer to the full level. His excuse was that some 3800's take 5 qts. Both my series 1 and 2 engines have called for 4.5 qts.
First questions is would a half qt take it that full over the full mark? I'm wondering if the machine they use could of put in more that it should.
Second question is do some 3800's take 5 qts?
I know from searching that some of you always over fill your 3800's and say it won't hurt anything but I'm just not comfortable with it, wasn't making me feel warm and fuzzy.
I have been taking in my own filter so I decided since this happened I'm going to start taking in my own oil. They only charge $20 if you do this.
