How many quarts of oil should be in a 2001 Chevy?

Answer 1

2001 Chevy what? Chevrolet made lots of different models in 2001. As you do not list what model you are referring to here is how to find out. Park the vehicle on a level surface, drain the oil, and change the filter. On a 4 cylinder & V6 Add 4.5 quarts of the correct weight oil and start the engine. On a V8 add 5 quarts. Run for 30 seconds and shut down. Wait 30 minutes and check the oil level. Add as necessary to reach the full mark. Do no overfill. You now know the capacity.
