I've got an 86 350x. How much oil does it take?

Til the dipstick shows its full... LOL!

Ok all joking aside.. Manual says 1.9 quarts, so just under two. I like to put in about 1 3/4 and then use the dipstick to bring it right to perfect. Remember, don't screw in the dipstick when checking the level or you will be low, just dip it down til the cap rests on the hole.

And if you change the oil filter it will take a little more. Top it off and idle it for a minute and recheck. Add more if needed.
