Default Re: how much oil dripping is normal ?

when i change my oil i only put in aprox. 4 1/2 qts. about 1/4 in. down from full on the dip stick, i still have a small oil leak but not as bad if i go to the full mark.
I've seen a few A model's that don't leak at all but most leak some. esp. if you don't park them on a level spot, not nose up. i allways put a peice of cardboard under the eng when i park it at the end of the day and change it about every 2-3 mo's.
mine don't leak enough to tear the eng. down, and mine is just a driver, almost 80 years old, jmho.
