4.7 litres capacity dry engine Extra 230mls for oil filter
Keep in mind there will be some oil leftover the engine wont be completely dry so put 4 litres in first and work your way up in 100-200ml increments from there.
LOL my thoughts exactly. Only oil filter i have ever seen that big was a huge hydraulic filter on a truck.

It goes fill on the dipstick, so you put more in to it goes fill again and check, if it goes to fill again, put some more in. Must get me one of those dipsticks, what are they called! Let me guess.
