If you jack the car to 18 degrees, from the side, it will drain the dipper tray COMPLETELY & then you can use 5 quarts of oil.

SUCCESS!!!!! Set a stop on the cap so it cant go down all the way and bottom out. Tightened up the dip stick ( it was all the way down ) oil level is between high and low, not topped off. Drove it around about 15 miles got home and let it set a while and no big leaks. 
Always had a few small drips but that's ok. Either the cap was down to far and not venting or the level was too high or a combination of both. All is good now. Thanks for the help. I just knew I was going to have to replace the main seal. What a relief.

Much easier to put that stop on the cap than to pull the engine. GOOD NEWS!!
