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 |

With the cooler mounted high, does the oil drain back when the engine is shut off? Does that change the dip stick reading? Upon startup, does it need to pressurize the system?

Upon startup, does it need to pressurize the system? Oil drain back is not noticeable when checking the oil. I've been doing the method I've described for 7 years with no issues...that's all I know. Others may have more info |
