Over 7 qts of oil!!!
Help!
I posted early today about 8BA canister lid leak…(I’m on hold waiting for new gasket).
Yesterday when I started the car the oil canister began leaking like crazy. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize it until my floor was covered in oil.
I cleaned up the floor, put 4 qts, nothing showed in dip stick. Added another qt, still nothing, added yet another (making 6) and dipstick barely showed oil at bottom of indicator.
So I just now drained all of the oil and ended up with over 7 quarts!
Is there a scenario where an 8BA has over 7 quarts of oil and is barely registering on the dip stick?
Previous owner rebuilt the motor. Dipstick showed full when I purchased car in May and I’ve run it and driven it sparingly since then.
