It calls for 4.5 (4 1/2 ) quarts with a filter change too. After you change it and add the oil start the car and let it run for about 2 mins. to let everything circulate and then shut it off and check the oil again to make sure that it is still full and that there are no leaks. Hope that this helps. Have a good day !

How to change the oil?

How to Change Your Oil
howtochangeautooil.jpg
  • Go to the parts house and for most cars buy six quarts (US) of good oil. Here we recommend staying with the manufacturers recommended (check your owners manual) oill for your car. Your engine will need about five of those quarts (also check your owners manual for the correct amount) and you keep one in the trunk in case the car needs an extra quart during the operation of the vehicle. About oil: I don't know what brands are available to you folks in Canada. In the USA some of the best are Pennzoil, Quaker State, Castrol, and Valvoline. If any of these are readily available to you, use them for long engine life. Most brands are very good, though, and don't knock yourself out trying to find these. What is important is: whatever the brand you chose, stay with that brand forever. Do not mix oil! If you chose a synthetic oil such as our Mobil1, do not mix regular oil with synthetic oil.
  • Pick up a good oil filter for the vehicle. In the USA, the best filter we now know of is the Fram Dual-Guard. When I say good filter, I mean one that will do the job removing the carbon and such from the engine oil. Talk to your mechanics and find out what is the best in Canada. We also have Purolator and a significant amount of "cheap" filters. Always go with the best. A good filter is a lot cheaper than an engine overhaul.
  • Pick up a decent "oil filter wrench" from you local hardware store or parts house. There are several different style of these items and the key phrase is "working in close quarters". Chose one that will do the job for you and get the filter off the engine. I, personally, use a metal strap wrench because I have never found a vehicle that it wouldn't fit or do the job.
  • Buy a decent oil container pan to put under the car to receive the oil. Forget the old dishpan or bucket. You need a pan that will contain the oil that can be closed to seal the oil after it is drained. Why? Because you are going to be a good citizen and recycle the oil after it is drained rather than dump it in the trash or on the ground. God gave us this earth to live on and use, but not abuse. Okay, you're ready to start the process. First, understand that if oil gets on your hands or arms, it's not like acid. Mechanics use clean engine oil to wash off dirty oil, but afterwards wash thoroughly with soap and water. Petroleum based products are better off off the skin

How do you change the oil in a 1984 monte carlo ss

First you have to be able to slide a pan under the engine to catch the oil, Then remove the drain plug. Let all the oil drsin out while you cjange the oil filter by unscrewing it counterclockwise. Put oil on the new filter seal and screw the new filter on as snug as you can by hand.. Put the oill pand plug back in and snug it down. Don't forget the gasket washer under the plug. Slide the pan of old oil out carefully and set it where you won't step in it. Open the hood and on one of the valve covers ia a cap about 3" in diameter. Remove the cap and look inside. If yo can see the rocker arms that is it. Put 4 quarts of new oil in it, then start it. Look underneath for any leaks. Turn the engine off and ck the oil level with the dipstick. If it is a quart low, add the fith quart. If on the full line. Add no more. Only run the engine long enough to fill the oil filter . It should only take 10 seconds. If this is a v8, it should need the fiftj quart. Put the valve cover cap back on , Put he dipsatick back in, Close the hood, and deny forgetting about the pan of oil as you step in it as you move back proud of your first oil change. Always run the engine again for 5 minutes to make sure no leaks appear. Good Luck.
