The light will come on when it is 1.5 quarts low in a hard turn or going up a hill. It will come on when it is 2 quarts low traveling normally. Why not just check the oil level regularly and not depend on a light telling you it is low?

How much oil do you put into a 1997 Toyota Tacoma i don't have the owners manual?

My 1999 Tacoma Prerunner with a 2.7 L engine holds 5 quarts. Just park the vehicle on a level surface. Drain the oil and change the filter. Pour in 4.5 quarts, start the engine and run for 45 seconds. Shut off and wait 45 minutes. Check the level and add until full. You now know what it holds.
