OilBox Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Does anyone know the oil capacity of a Dnepr mt 10-36 with a deep sump I've looked online and cant find the info. Makes it easier at oil changes when I continually must check the dip stick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temppu Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 It´s about 2 Liter. Put 1.9L first and then check dip stick. There are little differences of capacities.(1.9-2.2L) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dneprlover Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Not sure, never thought about it. I have 2 with deep sumps and always put 2.5 litres in , then run the engine and adjust levels to suit. One engine has external filter and the other has a slinger, so capacities are different on mine. The other bikes have standard sumps with oil slingers and take a fairly standard 2.2 litres.Might be an idea if you carefully measured what you put in your bike next time you do an oil change? Or maybe Ken will chip in on this one, he sells deep sumps so would be in the best position to advise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OilBox Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thanks..going to write this on the garage wall. :)Its hard to find this info online , try to google and see what pops up.Go round and round in circles.I have the slinger and while adjusting the valves , noticed moisture in the oil..No doubt from taking the bike out in the snow just for a run.If I found a drop in the valve covers when I removed them , what's in the pan.Cant wait to see..when I change the oil Whats your favorite oil.when I bought the bike 7 years ago , the owner was running straight 50But I switched to 20w50I use 20-50 in the cooler months and 50 w in the summer..
