I looked in info/faq but can't find how many quarts of oil my 1.8 takes. If any one knows please post, thanks

I put in just about 4 quarts and then run it, then check again (filter fills up) and it takes about another 1/4 quart, so mine is like 4.3 with filter.. strange..

(no I am not OVER filling, as the dipstick would indicate if I was..)

I've been taught not to start them without the filter being full first. Without it, the car will start dry, and run that way for a second or two. Every time you change your oil, is it on a flat surface? With my Celica, I've noticed that the slightest change in angle can lead to inaccurate dip stick readings.
