I'm going down to Pep boys this afternoon to get some gear oil for the transmission and I forgot to grab my manual on the way out this morning.

Does anyone have the capacities table handy?

From memory, and if you have overdrive, 1.8 litres. (In US, 3.8 litres is a US gallon, we're metric up here!)

Hi Jim,

Simon is close.

TR3 is same as the TR4 I'm sure, which is:

Non-OD, 1.8 pints (US, not Imperial)
OD from dry, 4.2 pints
OD drain & refill, 3.3 pints

Source is the TR4 factory workshop manual.

Cheers,

Alan
