Not sure I follow what this means: "It was 2-3 quarters max, just added a quart to avoid it for at least 1k miles,1 month..." If you let it get down 3 quarts, you could have caused damage. never drive any distance with oil that low.
Yep, I'm unsure what that means too and I hope you didn't overfill it. That can have bad consequences too.
