Re: Help with Oil Please
You might have the wrong dipstick for your pan. Assuming you have what appears to be a stock pan, I would do like you suggested, and put 5 quarts in it with a fresh 1 quart oil filter (AC 1218?). That will show you where full is.

Re: Help with Oil Please
where does the oil disappear, do you have a leak? If not it probably burns it, which means worn valve guides and damaged valve seals.
