AFTER YOU DRAIN YOUR OIL(BOTH PLUGS) YOUR MUSTANG(302) WILL TAKE 5 QUARTS OF OIL, NO MORE NO LESS.

no offense grabbem, but why would a tire, u joint, or wheel bearing cause the car to shake at idle?

i will add this though..while you are fixing your oil problem check your motor mounts also..

i just read my post from before, i didnt mean to make it sound like you were an idiot, sorry grabbem. Im at work and I wasnt really payin attention to what I was typing. No hard feelings i hope.

+1 for checking your motor mounts tho. Any mods in the future you plan on making will go A LOT smoother with good mounts. (ask anyone with ah*tty mounts about long tube headers rubbing.)

It will take 5 quarts with a filter change 4 quarts with out a filter. I would just drain some more out or take off the filter and drain that..will be about a quart, wouldn't drain it all. I think you should check you PCV if it looks like oil is comming up your dipstick tube...

my dipstick has always read really high. i think at the f in full.

i rebuilt my motor and put in exactly 5 quarts and it still read to the f on full which is way past all the other stuff

In my experience, the F is the "full mark"--or rather just below it.
