PARTSMASTER; I WENT TO THE GM DEALER AND BOUGHT A NEW OIL TUBE & DIPSTICK AND INSTALLED IT. I ADDED 5 QTS. OF OIL WITH A 1 QT. AC. FILTER. THE OIL LEVEL ON THE STICK IS STILL 1 QT. OVER FULL. THIS IS 20 YEARS AFTER THEY MADE THE 1ST ONE. IS THERE AN OFFICAL SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM? THE PROBLEM WITH NO SOLUTION IS; SUPPOSE A OWNER ONLY FILLS IT UP TO THE ADD MARK AND THEN LETS IT GET DOWN A QUART NOW IT'S DOWN 2 QTS. IN SOME DRIVING SITUATIONS THAT COULD BE HARD ON A ENGINE.THANK YOU FOR LISTENING.
