Re: Oil capacity clarification
I have an 8RT dipstick which is considerably different than the 8BA which is why I asked the question. Here is the overall difference and a close up.
I ended up putting a total of 5 qts in there. This brought the level to exactly the 12 1/2" measurement that 69A posted. I don't know why the dipstick is wrong but from other threads I've read, it seems like that is not so uncommon.
BTW, the 12 1/2" mark is almost exactly aligned with the last 'L' in FULL on the dipstick (8BA) on the left. At least for THIS dipstick.
Anyway, I followed what I think is great advice here as usual. Decided to turn it over to check oil pressure. I was able to get 25 psi which I think is good. If not, please yell at me!
Thanks guys!
