Quck question...3.4 oil capacity?
On my 98 Tacoma with the 3.4, how many quarts of oil should it take when using an OEM Toyota filter. The manual said 5.2 quarts with a filter change, but just double checking. Thanks

When I used to get my oil changed at Valvoline, they would always charge me extra because the price included up to 5 quarts, and my engine took just under six.
