RedrockLT5 · 06-09-2013

Just got my 92 red/red and just love it! Previous owner said oil was changed last fall and with almost no miles on the new oil but think I'll change it just so I know for sure when done last. My question: Need to lift the car a few inches to get oil pan under car so I thought I'd drive it up on my ramps (6 inches of lift), and allow the oil to drain over several hours. WIll this mess up the amount of oil drained and that needs to be replace? I believe it's 8.5 quarts with filter right?

Sorry about the trivial question but I want to do this right.

Thanks for your help
