Default Adding Archoil to Truck

Hello everyone, I decided from here on out to run Archoil Ar9100 in every oil change starting with one I did last week. I got the oil changed at the dealership and I believe they added 15 qts. I was gonna add the 16 oz bottle in this weekend and I was wondering if I should add it in on top of the 15 qts or take off the oil filter, take some oil out with a turkey baster, put filter back, and add Archoil. I am however going to add the stuff with the engine running and at a very slow pace to make sure it is evenly distributed. Just wanna get some input on if I need to take oil out or not. Or if overfilling by a half a quart is going to hurt anything?


Thanks

There will be no oil in the filter housing when you remove the oil filter. You will need to drain it from the pan.

Multiple people at work told me I can add it on top of 15 qts. It's all good! Thanks though!
