2017-2019 AR 210 oil change (TR-1 engine)

[FSH 210 Sport]

I don't recall offhand. I know it was more, but like you mentioned, not much. If I had to guess and put a figure to it, it was maybe half a quart combined, for both engines. It's been long enough that I don't trust my figures though. 2/3 is where I prefer the level as well. I've definitely experienced an overfilled motor, and it was noticeable enough that it caused me to check, so I try to fill it to the lowest mark on the dipstick, and then take a few quarts out with me for 2-3 trips, and check it until I'm confident it's at 2/3.

Right on….a measured approach..see what I did there?

A tad more detail, I split the difference on the fill amounts listed in the manual, 3.2L without filter 3.4L with filter. I added 3.3L, then ran each engine for 6 mins then let it sit for 6 mins and then checked the oil level (leveled the engines before I started) both were at the L low mark. I then added enough oil 45-.5L (in case you are wondering how I got that .45-.5L a quart is .946L and I was using the graduations on the side of the bottle to measure (I miss my ratio rite I need to get another one Ratio Rite ) and there are not any marks above .9 so I’m assuming .45-.5 ) to bring it to 2/3 then ran the engines again for 6 minutes let sit for 6 mins and rechecked, no change, oil level still at 2/3. I’ll check it again next time I’m on the water.

Im hoping this is repeatable but it all depends on getting the same amount of oil out of the engine, at least I have a closer baseline so I do not overfill.

After getting beat up for my last year's "I just put in what I take out" comment LOL I've found that my boat likes to be no more than half full (between low and full) on the dipstick as far as reaching max rpm's and top speed.

Spark plugs and oil level, of all the things to be so noticeably temperamental about these boats... I could have 15 gallons of water in the bilge, and those 2 things would be more noticeable!
