Would like to see oil at the top end. Probably wouldn't last too many kms if the oil is aerated.

I was surprised doubling the oil only increased the sump level a little.

Have you not realised that clicking "hide", "not interested", or "don't recommend" on these topics makes the algorithm classify you as a person who suffers from phobias thus flooding you with stuff trying to fix you.
