3116 and 3126 Marine Engines Caterpillar


Refill Capacities

Usage:

3116 1SK

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 OEM specifications for the capacity of the auxiliary oil filter. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Lubricant Specifications" topic (Maintenance Section) for more information.

Approximate Refill Capacities 
Compartment or System  Liters  Quarts 
Crankcase Oil Sump (Standard)(1)  25  26.4 
(1) These values are the approximate capacities for the crankcase oil sump which include the standard oil filters that are installed at the factory. Engines with auxiliary oil filters will require additional oil. Refer to the OEM specifications for the capacity of the auxiliary oil filter.

Cooling System

In order to maintain the cooling system, the Total Cooling System capacity must be known. The approximate capacity for the Engine Only cooling system is listed. External System capacities will vary among applications. Refer to the OEM 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.
