on 8/2/2008 Does every vehicle (car/SUV/truck...) use five (5) quarts of oil or do I need to check somewhere (if so, where?) how many quarts will my vehicle use?

"Hi, I’m Dean Donnel for expertvillage.com. Now we’re going to add the new oil to the car. The first thing you need to do is find the oil cap where you’re going to add the oil. This one is easy it’s right up front, you need to place the oil cap in a good place so it doesn’t fall in the engine and you loose it. Also when you change the oil it’s good to keep the same oil weight that you use before, the same oil weight is a good point. There’s several different oils out on the market, today we’re using 20/50 weight, there’s also synthetic oils and other brands out there but I prefer not to use synthetic oil. Now we’re going to add the oil to the engine. I’m adding the oil to the engine, that’s one court down and four courts to go. That’s how we add the new oil to the car."
