Got Some New Oil.....only 4l Available Though.....

[nsta]

Hey guys, i got some new oil to trial on my r33 gtst today, some mobil 1 0w40.....thing is they only sell in 4l packs......from what i hear after fully draining the oil these skylines need up to 4.5 litres!.....do i need to buy another one or not???

By the way, i usually remove filter, drain oil, add filter, then do up the the sump and re-add new oil (all 4l at the same time)

is this a good way to do it or not?, also does the engine need to idle for awhile after adding new oil.....

I will get a 20 ltr drum if i were you. It works out to be much cheaper. I got a 20ltr drum straight from the depot.

check you oil level on the dipstick in the morning before you start your engine. And if its below the full mark top it up. dont pour all at once pur in bit by bit and check the dip stick. Good choice in using mobil
