When I first pull the dipstick out on my 240 it shows NO OIL ON IT...
my heart almost stopped the first time I saw that...
but if you put it back in you should get the true reading... it showed just right..'
and many have recommended that these cars be run with the engine oil showing half way between High and Low on the dipstick...... over that can cause oil burning for some reason... does with mine..
AND something to check.... the COLOR of your dipstick has to be correct for YOUR engine.... we have had people find it was the wrong color... and thus length...
