Thanks guys. Sorry about 'another' oil thread. I was just a little worried. I also thought about how much oil is left in the engine due to the large ammount. I took nearly double what my brother's ranger does. He over fills a little because it burns it, and needs to dump a quart in every 4 weeks or so.

I guess I will change the oil sooner (maybe at 2000 miles) and put a synth blend in it. And I will be sure to get a C_ rated oil. Since oil is so easy to do I don't mind having to change it a bit sooner. I will also run the car for a fairly long time right before I change it so it's nice and hot and let it drain a lot longer than I did. It was at a slow trickle when I put the bolt back on.

Thanks for the help guys.

Also I didn't look into synth blend or full synth when I was at the store, how much more is it? I paid 1.75 a quart for the valvoline 10W40. A case is 0 savings.
