ENGINE SIZE/DISPLACEMENT vs OIL CAPACITY

**add616reneb** · October 11th, 2004 04:37 PM

Please post how many liters of oil are needed for the following engine sizes:

1. for 1000cc-1500cc engines
2. for 1600cc-2000cc engines
3. for 2.2 lt. – 3.0 lt. engines
4. for 3.2lt. – 4.0 lt. engines
5. for 280HP - 350HP engines
6. for 400HP - 500HP engines

Many thanks in advance!

Weh?

1.6 liters, usually 3.5 liters of oil
2.0 liters, around 3.75 liters of oil.

This varies per model and engine, but that's the general rule.

I don't know about 2.2 ltr - 4.0 ltr engines. Maybe someone else can help.

There is no general rule as to the oil capacity of engines depending on horsepower. For example, a 2.0 liter 4G63 Evo engine requires maybe 4 liters of oil, and produces the same power as a 5.7 liter V8, which would require more than 10 liters of oil. It really just depends on the size of the engine.

Thanks niky for the info. Approximate lang naman ang kailangan ko for the engine size ranges.:nerd:

my 3.0 liter ZD30 engine uses 8.1 liters of oil. earlier models of the same engine uses only 6 liters of oil. after they found out it was not enough (crank case cracking), they modified the oil pan to a bigger one to accomodate more oil.

Accdg to the owner's manual, the 4A-FE (1.6L) requires 3.2L of oil. Pero nung sinalin yung 4L container, parang mga 0.5L na nga lang ang natira... Hmmm...
