Oil Level drop in Carrera 4 3.6L

[Reelyfun]

I just changed the oil on my 1990 Carrera 4 3.6L engine. I used Mobil 1 for the change. I drained the oil from the thermostat drain as well as the crankcase.Thena new Porsche oil flter just to keep it 100% stock.The oil pressure is perfect. Between 1 and 2 bars at warm engine idle. 4-5 bars at anything over 2000 rpm. The problem is that now the OIL LEVEL gauge is showing very LOW to NO oil level.

I drove, low speed,  around the block (1/2 mi.) to see if an air bubble needed to come out of the system. That was not it. After the engine warmed up to operating temperature, during stopping only, the oil level would come up to the middle of the range on the gauge. However, as soon as acceleration began, the oil level dropped back to zero. I know there is oil due to the addition of 10.0 quarts being added.

The oil level gauge behaved properly prior to changing the oil, and almost always showed "full up needle".

Has anyone seen this? And do you have a fix?

Sounds OK providing you're confident you didn't loose any of the oil you put in

I suggest you try one of the porche enthusiast boards such as http://boards.rennlist.com/
