Hi i just did my first oil change on my tc...the first oil change i ever did in my life by myself..

and i bought the toyota filter and 5w-30 mobil syn 1 and put about 3.75 quarts in it?

is this the right amount?

ipull the dipstick and it says its right on the full mark..!

is this bad? or do i have to start y engine for the oil to circulate and then shut it off and check it again for the real amount of oil in it?

cause i thought i would put in atleast 4 quarts of oil in!


thanks

Also do i really need a new drain plug washer?

I just cleaned off the oil on my current plug and stuck it already back on...!

will it leak or something?
