Hi Thomas, I poured oil into the my KJ engine : 3,2 liter 50W mineral oil. Have high oil pressure......... and operating the engine is well....... greetings Tamas from Hungary ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Thks Dave for the Info. Will measure my dipstick as well and take a photo. 3 Quarts are arnd 2,8 l. With 2,5 l (2,1 quart) i am at the lower upper mark (dont know how to express better), which seems to be the original mark on the dipstick, because the mark is going around the stick. I have spoken to some riders already, but everybody fills it to the mark on the dipstick or to the stairs when talking of a Deluxe. Nobody measures the quantity. Maybe exact measuring is something only germans are interested in.... ;- )) Thomas ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Thomas, Here is a picture of my dipstick. I am not sure if the dipstick is original. I have a Deluxe oil pan on my bike, and Carl Vandre welded on the dipstick tube. He may have made the dipstick too - that man could make anything! I think it takes 3 quarts - I didn't count last time I changed the oil - just filled it up to the upper mark. Dave ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Hi i have recently changed oil of my Henderson KJ 29. I wonder how many liters/quarts have to be filled into the engine. The dipstick of my bike has 3 upper marks. The 2 upper marks seems to be selfmade and i am not sure if the marks are correct at all. Thks for any info. Thomas |
