Advice:

You never know exactly how much you drained out.  Best bet is to put a about 3.25 quarts in and start up the engine.  let it idle until the oil light turns off.  let it sit for about a minute.  check the oil, and slowly keep adding and checking until it's at the 'full' line.  then you'll have EXACTLY what you need <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
