Oil capacity
Hey all. What's the oil capacity of a 2lt air-cooled T25 petrol engine. I did an oil change yesterday and the dip stick is showing weird results... Nothing in between the twists in the dipstick but a little below and on top. Anyone had this problem before??

Re: Oil capacity
4.5 litres including the filter. Did you drain it all out?

3.5l with filter change 3.0l without a filter change. 4.5l is for WBX engines.

Re: Oil capacity
Sweet. 3.5lt sounds about right. Think my issue was not having enough in. Dip stick still has oil above the twist when it comes out but an uninterrupted film of oil from the tip to between the max and mum marks.

What does a mum mark look like? Stretch marks?
