[QUOTE="decatur racer, post: 858471, member: 14894"] Ok so Im kinda new to the mustang scene but not to working on cars I bought a 96 GT all original. I just did my first oil change with it not sure what oil the last owner had or oil filter. Well I replaced them with a wix oil filter and royal purple 5w30 I added 5qts what the chilton called for and i noticed its wasnt reading on the dipstick and the low oil light was on so I add a 6th qt and the light went out. Well I drove the car tonight and I parked it on a slight forward incline and when I came out to start the car and leave the oil light was on again. Ive read that if you park it on a slight forward incline the low oil light will come on but before I changed the oil Ive parked the car on this hill many times before and never had this problem. So my question is why after I changed the oil and filter the oil light is now coming on. The oil presure gauge is reading in the same spot as before between the M and the A on normal. Also the car doesnt not leak a drop of oil at all. Thanks, Dustin [/QUOTE]
