I don't have any service manual. And I'm about to replace plugs filters cables etc on my restoration. But what is the oil capacity with a new oil filter installed? I've restored many cars, but this is my first dutchman 😅

The oil capacity is 2.75 litres. Buy three litres, drain the old oil and change the filter. Add 2.75 litres to the engine, check the dipstick & top up if needed. Run the engine IN NEUTRAL for a few minutes & allow to stand for 5. Dip again and top up if necessary.
(I've just re-read this and it reads like a recipe instruction!)

I'm gonna pour in some engine cleaner with the old oil, run it 20 minutes on idle, then change oil and filter. =) |
