Oil sump
« on: March 13, 2018, 09:20:41 PM »
Anyone familiar with a Marine Power 454. Specifically the oil sump and what it's capacity should be. I believe oil sump capacity should be 10 qts. When I sucked the oil out to do a oil change, I removed 9 qts but the oil level on the dipstick was about  and inch and a half past the Full Mark

Well, oddly enough, I just did a rear main seal on one last month. The pan on a 330hp Marine power is 7 quarts plus the filter.

Don't run it high, it will whip the oil into something resembling a root beer float and get hotter than an exhaust header on your nutsack...

That nutsack part sounds painful..got it drained, replaced the oil filters and serviced the engine with 6 qts of fresh oil. I'll recheck the level after I get my batteries back in.
Thanks

Apparently this sump was a 6 qt capacity. It was overserviced by a quart
