Diesel engines typically have a larger oil sump than a gas engine of the same size. That being said. A lot of the time engine manuals list total oil capacity. What would be added after an overhaul. You could have undrainable oil left behind, what might be in a cooler, turbo etc. If you change yo

Every time I change oil on Alera I check the engine spec for the Yanmar 3HM35F that calls for 5.7 quarts. I have never been able to get more than 4 quarts out or in. I use an electric pump extractor via the dip stick hole. I understand that the angle of the engine on my 37+ results in the oil
