No, absolutely not. You check the oil level and add whatever is necessary to reach the full make on the dipstick. It may be that the oil level if already full and you have a faulty oil pressure sending unit. If you just add a quart you may overfill the crankcase which is just as bad as under filling. It may also be the oil pump has failed. If you find the oil level is ok take the car to a trusted professional. Unless you are sure you have the proper oil pressure you will need to tow it there or you may destroy the engine if it indeed has no oil pressure.

Your 95 Chevy cavalier check oil light on?
You actually have two oil indicator lights in the 95 Chevy Cavilier, a Check Oil Light, which glows yellow to indicate a condition that while not serious, could become serous if ignored and the Oil Light that looks like a glowing tea pot, which glows red to indicate a serious condition needing immediate attention. That is the oil pressure lamp. The Check Oil light indicates low oil level. Usually it comes on when the oil level is down a quart or more. Check your oi level and if it is low, simply add oil to top it off and the lamp should go out The oil pressure light, on the other hand, is a more serious condition indicating low oil pressure. This comes on either when your oil level is extremely low, (in which case the check oil light is also illuminated), or a bad or failing oil pump
How do you diagnose the problem in a 2001 3.8 liter engine when the oil light comes on for a second when starting up the car?
First off, that sounds entirely normal. The oil light comes on as a diagnostic to show that the light bulb is working.Second, check the oil, just to be safe. It is a rule of thumb that if the oil level is at the lowest mark on the dipstick, the engine is a quart low. If it is half way up the dipstick, it is at an acceptable level, but is still half a quart low. Add accordingly.10w30 motor oil is a good weight to run in a 3.8L. 5w30 and lower (5w20, and 0w20) is just too thin, especially for a 2001.

My oil is low can i just pour in a can or two?
No. And Yes. Why do you think it is low? Take an accurate reading and see if the level is at the "low" or "add" line. If so add 1 quart and check again. If you are sure it is still low add half a quart and re-check. But by this time if you need 2 quarts it would make more sense to just have the oil changed.

How do you add transmission fluid to a suzuki forenza?
Get a narrow funnel and fill in the location you check the level from. Pour in a quart at a time and with your foot on the brake and car running shift the gears from park N, D 1,2,3, etc a few times. Check the level again if you need more add another quart......... Actually this is wrong because you have to check the fluid from the bottom on the back side of the transmission with a special tool. So if you don't have a way of getting under the car or have a special tool to do it with then you won't be able to. You also have to fill the fluid using this same hole.
