Oil change... full 4 or does anyone hold a bit out?

[Shady28]

242x with I believe the 1.8’s. Anyone hold a bit out from a full 4 quarts when changing the oil? Seems like the full 4 may over fill?

I put 3.75 qts in each engine

I usually start at 3.5 qts.

I would measure what you took out and put that much back and check from there

I use the dipstick markings just like my other vehicles. Fill it to midway cold and then bring it up to operating temps and add more if necessary.

Put 3.5 in yesterday, keep some oil on the boat and check it after it’s on the water and the engines are warm.

I pulled 4 quarts yesterday and replaced it with 4 put the dip right on the full line. I spent time to pull as much oil as I could. Single engine 2016
