Oil level should be taken when the engine has stood still for some time, better over night, to allow oil in the upper level to sink back into the oil sump. Wipe the dip stick and push it into the pipe from which it had been removed initially. Pull the dip stick out and inspect the oil level. There should be a minimum and a maximum level marked on the dip stick. If the oil level is near the minimum mark, add more oil, but don't pour too much oil in.
