For reference this is a 99 chevrolet tracker 1.5l four cyl.
I know some dipsticks have a hot and cold or even a range the oil should be within. I haven't checked my oil in a while (I know shame on me...) and I recently checked it (after it sat overnight)and if i wiped the dipstick off real good NO OIL was on the dipstick. I thought the best time to check oil level was after the engine had sat for a while because all the oil runs back down, giving a better reading...?? I don't believe the engine starved for oil as it didn't seize and i didn't hear any rattling or other scary sounds. Do I have an oil leak and and almost run the engine dry, OR did i check it incorrectly? thanks!
