MGA owners: I am a bit puzzled about the difference between what my MGA should take for oil and what it actually took. I just replaced all the oils (and filter) after leaving everything to drain for

Hi Mark, mine takes 4.5 quarts including the filter and I don't have a dented oil pan; although I used to. My dipstick touches the bottom of the oil pan when it's pushed all the way down, I wonder if

Andy and Ron, The oilpan is not significantly dented, and yes my dipstick seems to hit bottom. I guess I will just keep an eye on it. Also my oil pressure seems a bit higher. It used to run about 40
