No I have not cleaned the oil pan. The engine has about 1,500 miles on a rebuild. I would only "assume" they cleaned it.

I just checked it again after a 50 mile ride. More like 1/2 inch over the full mark.

I like Katy's method of fixing it, and will do it that way.

So, is the correct amount 4 or 4.5. I guess I will start with 4 and slowly see when it stops on full.
