My only stupid question of the day !
« on: July 21, 2009, 04:48:14 PM »
I did not do the service to my bus myself she is a cte and was just asked on eBay how much oil does she need for an oil change  Huh?  .... I dunno    can anyone advise? Dont want to give the wrong information.
A gallon is what i paid for never had the can back so  Sad  does it take a gallon inc filter?

Roughly a gallon is right.

A little tip when doing an oil change.. 
pour abour 4 litres i the engine.. fire her up and let the engine pull the extra from the top up tank if fitted... then refill top up tank and check dip stick level to be sure it's correct.

This flushed the old oil out of the top up tank and ensures it's still working ok..  Grin
