Oil Change on a FMS 392
How many quarts of oil does a your standard crate FMS 392 w/ oil cooler and remote filter require?
I am planning on using a 10w-30.
Anything else special I should know?
TIA,

so riddle me this, why did the car only take like 5 qts? And I am sure I have an FMS 392. I put like 7 in plus filled the filter and when I checked the oil it was way over? So i had to drain some out like 2.5 qts to be at the fill line. Did I not empty the pan right and is there any other place I should have drained besides the pan and the remote filter? The pan had 2 drain plugs. I looked at the FMS website and its says its a 7qt pan. Is there a place to drain the Oil Cooler?
TIA,
Mike
