5SFE oil change

Postby Hsakuragi » Wed Nov 03, 2004 10:45 am

From my understanding,

for 5sfe - always 4US qts ..yes 4 not more or less

for 1mz - always 5US qts ...yes again not more or less

i wouldn't turst the dipstick measurment..just like the trans mission dipstick, how you can tell if you fill fluid and check the fluid from the same spot?

I know this is an old post but....
You don't really run your engine without oil do you?
Something tells me that it's not such a good idea.

Thats the other thing i just noted to be SOO wrong. You should never start any engine without oil. I know that oil sticks well to parts and they are lubed well..but this just doesn't sound right..makes me worried for all those who use this fourm to learn..and then do the wrong things
