External oil cooler=extra oil?

[but]

I just recently put a small B&M oil cooler on my 1g because my other one crapped out on me. I use to have a water cooled housing now its air. Does this require extra oil because its now going through the cooler when running?

Fill the engine up with oil as if you were dong a regular oil change. Bring the oil up to temperature at idle. Check the dip stick and add as needed. It will vary based on the coolers size.

i have the 20,500btu B&m cooler.. it took about 3/4qt. but it won't be in the oilpan if you have the A/N fittings on top the cooler cause it can run back into the oil housing. if you have them on the bottom it will run back and look like you have to much oil in the pan....i recomend to have them on top so you get acurate readings on the dipstick.
