Hi all,

i'm gonna do the oil tomorrow, can any tell me how much I need for the 660Z?

I'm doing oil and filter...

I've got some semi synth 10/30 ( I think ) that I have left over from doing my XR400, will that do ?

cheers ?

No manual for the Ten yet so can anyone give me the heads up on filling and checking too ?

I love you guys.....

Hi, Here's a thread which i used.

Remember to fill it in stages (as per thread) and warm the engine before checking the levels. Check the level in the upright position, take out the dipstick and place it back without screwing it back in.
Hope this helps. Not sure about the 10/30 oil i'm sure someone will be along to advise.

10/30 is perfectly suitable (10/40 is generally the more common choice of grade in the UK).

10/30 is only recommended for ambient temperatures up to 35C though - I'm sure it will be ideal in our climate!
