Hey guys,
So as some of you may know, I just purchased a 2000 Impreza 2.5rs with an 06 WRX engine (close enough to an STi, right haha) and I just realized the oil catch can is basically full and when I actually check the dipstick, the oil level is right under E.
I am wondering if I need to put oil back into my engine or if the "catch" tank would be setup to circulate oil. (idk how it'd work but I just want to make sure)
I know this sounds like a common sense question but I don't want to run the engine dry based on an assumption.
Thanks for any help!
