Before adding oil to your Thunderbird, make sure that your engine was cold and that your car was parked on a level surface when you checked the oil level otherwise you won't be able to tell if your Thunderbird has a low oil level. For most Fords, if your oil level is at the minimum mark on your dipstick, you should add about a quart of oil. If you are unsure how much oil to add to your Thunderbird, add a little bit at a time and check your dipstick frequently.
