Dip Stick Markings
There are marking on the oil dip stick but no explanation in the owners manual as to what they mean. Does anyone really know? I'm just guessing at this point.

My understanding is the top of the has harks is optimal full level and the bottom of the hash marks is about 1 quart low.

If you are talking about the three holes, they are intended to help read the oil level. The one at the top of the hash marks indicates full/optimum level, one in the middle indicates half quart low, one at the bottom indicates a quart low.

I don’t know what year you own. But oil level is ALWAYS covered in the owners manual as are all fluid levels...
