I thought the accepted amount was 1/2 a qaurt(32oz/.946 liters) or 16ish ounces near to a half a liter. How did rotating the engine get more oil out of the plug? I was expecting you to have pulled the pan and poured the excess into a measure.

I rotated the entire engine while it was on the engine stand not just the crank shaft.
