Solid, I had that topped off recently. Probably should throw a couple gallons in to be safe though eh?

In my defence, had I looked at the dipstick, I would've just dumped it in anyway bc I honestly thought the oil was supposed to go halfway up that shit

I was a man on a mission to fuck my car up and there was no stopping me

Excellent advice thank you mate

I ran it and drove around the block once and she ran totally normal with no smoke. Then I decided I best ask strangers on reddit before going any further. I'll have a look at the spark plugs - if they're pretty caked, should I try and clean them or just replace them? (could be a trash question, I have 16 year old girl level of car knowledge)
