Default thanks...

Pkrwud,
I am still working on my oil problem on number 5. I am ruling out everything, including the prospect of overservicing it all this time.
I am quite sure I've always put 5 quarts in every oil change, but had to put in more shortly thereafter to get it to the etched "safe" mark on the dipstick. I just chalked this up to the new filter having to fill up with oil.
I guess I'll change the filter, fill it with 5 quarts, run it for a few minutes, mark it and go.
If it still eats oil, I guess it's definitely a bad ring.
Thanks...
