[QUOTE="blackshear, post: 465438, member: 24376"] I always thought it was best to run the engine before changing the oil. Maybe that is one of my mistakes plus not having a pump. After going back through this second oil change plus filter this time the oil is reading only 1/4 of the way up the dipstick. That is after running it for 5 minutes and letting it sit for 12 hours to be sure all of the oil has settled into the crankcase. I refilled it with 1 quart 5 oz of Yamaha oil. I am tempted to add a little bit more oil but after my last experience I guess it is best to leave it alone. [/QUOTE]
