d8usti5n Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hello all, New here. Recently bought my first Brat. its a 1980, but it didn't come with any of the original manuals. I ordered one the other day, but in the mean time i was hopeing someone might be able to tell me how much oil the brat takes? and if theres a recomended oil type or weight to use?Also this is my first project car, and its really going to be quite the learning experience for me, so go easy. But i'm quite excited to start playing with my new toy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spicypeanut Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 They should hold 3.8 quarts, but I'm not entirely sure which weight to use. I'm assuming 30 weight dino oil but I'm sure someone with more knowledge will chime in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 10w 30 oil, the capacity is a spot over 4 qts if you account for the volume of the oil filter. Filter is WIX 51361, or napa 1361 and 21361. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
