Um, six quarts is the "common exact quantity for an oil change". Only

Only a fool would change oil without cutting opening the filter to
check just what it has trapped. When you see glitter, rebuild the
motor. I have the special tool for that. It isn't expensive. Racers
usually have one. We used to change the oil and filter every twenty
minutes or so running time, that is once a week. We used the double
length truck filters.
