Thanks for your post. Wow. That is a double the oil in my 4 cyclinder.

I think that it is running on 3 cyclinder- 1,3,5 maybe.
Is there more than one power stage? I can see a 'sensor' on the front side of the intake manifold facing the alternator- is this what you are talking about? If so mine was missing when I got the motor and I used the (good) one from the old motor. I don't imagine 92-1993 being different. As for checking spark, is there a particular procedure for this motor with its funny coil packs? I pulled a plug out and laid it on the valve cover and I didn't get anything. So, thinking I found a dead one I checked another but it didn't produce any spark either making me think that I was not checking them correctly.

For the coolant I filled it up from the overflow tank, got about a gallon and a half into and started it up and pour the rest in as it slowly flowed into the radiator/motor.
