Default Re: Oil change

The amount of oil in the engine would not be affected by the changes to the chassis.

Assuming you are also changing the filter, a good idea with each oil change, I'd recommend that you put 1 quart in run it briefly to fill the new filter and check the dipstick. Top off if needed.

NO!

A 6" lift on a Club Car tilts the engine back, (unless the front of the engine cradle has been lowered)
and if you fill the crankcase to the dipstick full line, it will be overfilled with oil, and may start to smoke!

32oz. without a filter
38oz. when replacing the oil filter
