Title: Oil Capacity and Foaming...
Post by: 95carrera202 on May 22, 2017, 11:30:30 AM
Quick question for the jet boat whippers:
95 Carrera
Stock Marine Power 454
Dominator Jet
Online manual states 8 quart oil pan. Plus 2/3 for each filter.
Did an oil change just before this trip. Drained ALL of the oil. Added 9 1/3 quarts of oil...2 filters.
Now its blowing oil into the bilge and bogging down while trying to get on plane. Pulled a filter yesterday and drained approximately 1 quart, which seemed to help a bit.
Question is am I on the right track as far as oil foaming and too much oil...or any other ideas?
Thanks In Advance for any advice!

With that pan... you'll be in the 5-6qt in the pan... then about 2 for the filters. If in doubt... check where it reads on the dipstick.

Copy that. Only got 5 (dip stick read full) quarts out with plug pulled. Knew that couldn't be correct. Didn't trust dip stick...
