Re: oil amount for 4.3
Depends on dip stick. And how you use it.
That is one thing that never has been improved on. Stick it in one way and it may show low and turn it over and it may show somethings else. Best is to check cold before you start it and if it says low add a little till it says full. Good Luck. MT

Re: oil amount for 4.3
Almost all vehicles are 1 Qt. add to full. I'd almost guarantee that yours is. When you get the different levels on opposite sides, go with the lower reading.
Exceptions are big engines (I've seen 5 Qt. add to full on a big diesel) or small engines (.5 Qt.)
