Lubrication System
The refill capacities for the engine crankcase reflect the approximate capacity of the crankcase or sump plus standard oil filters. Auxiliary oil filter systems will require additional oil. Refer to the specifications for the capacity of the auxiliary oil filter. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Maintenance Section" for more information on Lubricant Specifications.

Cooling System
To maintain the cooling system, the Total Cooling System capacity must be known. The approximate coolant capacity for the engine is shown in Table 3. External System capacities will vary among applications. Refer to the specifications for the External System capacity. This capacity information will be needed in order to determine the amount of coolant/antifreeze that is required for the Total Cooling System.
