however, I change the oil immediately after this start to flush out the engine as it has been standing for 20+ years

to my surprise, I got a maximum of 0.3 liters out of my oil tank, and that the oil filter looked like new, so no oil has passed through it??!!

the car is filled with 11L (about 12quarts?) of new oil before starting.

should I be worried or does the oil not reach the filter until you are at operating temp?

Am I running too little oil?

I feel right now that it doesn't feel right to go out on a first trip

Is this a brand new build?
