Can anyone tell me what the working oil capacity of a 914-6 would be with a George Vellios cast aluminium oil tank ?
I am assuming the std capacity with the original oil tank is 8-9 US quarts (about 8.5 litres)
Many thanks
Andrew

I believe so... The amount will be greater if you have an external cooler and you're filling everything for the first time -- or if don't allow all the lines and cooler to drain completely.

I stop at 8, Check it a few seconds after I start it (adding more if it's low), then drive it around to warm it up and check it again topping it off as needed. If you over fill it, it spits out the excess in classic fashion (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) (don't forget a puke bottle).

I've found that the dipstick that shipped with my tank is accurate.
