Default Oil change Help!

Well I just purchased a '93 Carrera C2. Now I am trying to get the oil out and have removed the oil drain plug at the bottom of the motor, the one near the filter, and the one down by the side skirt. Now I know there should be way more oil than what has come out. Am I missing something?

Should be 2 drain plugs, and about 9 quarts of oil. If you are down well below that, you are probably looking at an engine problem.

Those two being the one in the engine case and the one in front of the right rear wheel? I bought it from a lady whom I dont think took care of the car. So could possibly be extremely low on oil?

You may want to check me on the oil capacity, it may be less than that on the C2
