new to me 914 needs an oil change. car has "tuna" can sump, remote oil filter and cooler. cooler is located in back, mounted high under under trunk.
estimate of how much oil it holds?
does the oil cooler drain back to the engine?
with engine warm, where should oil be on dip stick?
thanks Dave

I have the exact same setup. I remove the oil lines at the cooler which drains the cooler and most of the lines. I also remove the tuna can. I put 4 qts and take her for a drive to make sure the cooler is filled (mine uses a thermostat sandwich adapter) and top off to the full line (top line on the dipstick). My last oil change required an additional 12oz of oil after the drive.
