It would depend on if you are doing a "complete" oil change or if you just need to add some oil if it leaks. If doing a complete change, then you would put in 4.5 to 5 quarts. Otherwise, for leakage, you would add what it needs. My Volvo 240 (1986) has a very small and slow leak, so in my experience, anywhere from 1/4 quart to 1/2 quart is normal. Good luck!
