NO WAY, does it take .86 quart. It takes .9 pints according to the
Without Guesswork book. There is a metal flange around the inside of the
lower part of the air cleaner. Fill to the bottom of this flange. 
I usually fill the crankcase to the full mark 5.3 pints, then put the
rest of the 3 quarts into the air cleaner. (.7 pints) It is better to be
a little low on oil in the air cleaner than too full.
