I found this out when I offered up my garage to a friend who has an
immaculate Porsche 911T, but who has never actually worked on it himself. He wanted
to change his oil. We put it on the lift, he found *a* drain plug and removed
it, then he started to fill it with 13 quarts. Meanwhile, I was elsewhere,
working on the Pantera.
When the oil started pouring out of the air filter housing, he concluded that
perhaps something was amiss...:>) After a draining of a suitable amount of
(new) oil, he announced that the oil change operation was complete. With the
oil gauge on the dash showing just less than full, he drove off with huge
clouds of oil smoke coming out the exhaust. :>)
