How many quarts of oil does a Chevy Silverado 1500 4.8L take?

Answer 1

You will need five quarts of oil. For every liter size your engine is you figure one quart of oil per liter.

Buy 6 quarts of oil and new filter, Drain old oil and remove old filter. Replace with new filter, then replace drain plug in oil pan. Add 5 quarts of oil then start the engine and let it run. Check for leaks, and shut engine off. Let it sit so oil drains back into oil pan. Check oil level and add to oil fill line if needed. Save extra new oil for later if any is left.
