[vz-r_dave]

Hi guy\'s being a bit lazy but just wondering how much oil i will need for an oil change? I have searched but found only the types of oil to use etc.

Thanks

I will have a look when i get home (I got the whole factory service manual in me room - cant rememeber) what oil you gonna use Dave?

going to use 10W30 mineral oil. Either that or fully synthetic mobil1.

fully synth ........... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

i use castrol GTX 10/40 mineral oil , and it takes about 4 to 4.5 litres on an oil change

Makes me laugh all this oil stuff.  The Project I just brought has always used fully synthetic oil for 15 years of its life, still runs and has done virtually 120,000 miles!!!!

Of course I use only mineral oil in my FD!     :rollin

As for how much - I have just looked in the owners handbook and it only says about topping it up!  :confused:
