GREETINGS
6v92T SUMP & FILTER 22Lt
16 Lt TO LOW MARK
FULL MARK ONE INCH BELOW SPLIT LINE (SUMP/BLOCK)
FROM THE DD FIELD SERVICE DATA BOOK 1979
8067 7040 OIL PAN TYPE 164, OIL PAN P/N 5125668, CAPACITY IN US QUARTS 19.5
8067 7300, 164, 5125668, 19.5
8067 7317, 211, 5125670, 19.5
8067 7340, 164, 5125668, 19.5
8067 7400, 164, 5125668, 19.5
8067 7401, 164, 5125668, 19.5
WELL, I COULD KEEP TYPING IN MORE BUT ALL MODEL NUMBERS ARE 19.5 QUARTS EXCEPT FOR
8067 7740, 164, 5125668, 19
IF YOUR OPTION PLATE IS STILL ON ONE OF THE ROCKER COVERS AND READABLE IT SHOULD ALSO HAVE AN OPTION FOR YOUR DIPSTICK AND THE HANDBOOK HAS THE MEASUREMENTS FROM THE TOP OF THE DIPSTICK TO THE FULL MARK, THE MEASUREMENT FROM THE FULL MARK TO LOW MARK AND THE TOTAL LENGTH MEASUREMENT. HANDBOOK ALSO HAS PART NUMBERS FOR THE DIPSTICK OPTION TYPE. I CAN DO MORE HOMEWORK IF THE ENGINE MODEL NUMBER IS KNOWN.

Hi Overlander and thank you for all your typing, extremely helpful.
19.5 quarts is 18.5 litres, plus the filter capacity and what ever falls out when the filter is off. I put in 20 litres and it is showing about 1/4" down from full on the stick but I am yet to make sure it is on the flat and level when checking it.
I don't change the oil without changing a filter too, working for a major filter company makes that easy for me.
But I will very much lee in mind that about 20 L will be it.
Thanks again
