915 lubrication quantity
 

So as per the title I have a 915, I believe it's the all aluminium version and I've fitted it with a Quaiffe ATB differential.

I need to know how much oil I should be putting into it. In litres please, I think it's 2.4 or 2.6.


Here is the numbers:

I've bought 3 litres of Castrol B373 which is apparently a superdooder mineral based oil.

Thanks in advance

Hi

The info I have says 3 litres, if the trans has just been built they sometimes take a little extra.

Steve,

thanks very much for the info. I can't see the image at the minute (on my phone) But I'll ceck it out later on.

Quaiffe fitted the diff to the box but they didn't take the gear housing apart, they literally just replaced the diff. The whole box and diff has cost me £2k already and I can't justify a rebuild just yet :eekno:

Righto then so my 915 is out of a 1983 911 sc, good for a reference.

Is that like a Auto data database software your using there then?

Thanks

From memory I filled my old 915 until it was level with the fill hole on the side just like a VW trans...

Hi Rich,

I see your project is coming along very nicely... I'd better get my skates on our you'll have fully restored bug in the time its taken me to fit my engine:lmao:





Ok so I googled it and found this:

I'll just stick my 3 litres in it or until it comes out the hole:lmao:


Thanks

Hi

Its actually the genuine Porsche parts program called PET, very useful.

Steve

Well I got round to filling the box tonight AND...............................













It took just about 3 litres before it came pissing out the side hole:lmao::lmao::lmao:



Thanks for all your help guys:D
