Re: 340 engine oil capacity, off topic?




Original equipment filter on the 340's was the longer filter. Don't remember them even making the shorter filter back in the day ( I had a brand new one in 1969).

The shorter filter is correct. If you can fit the longer filter on, a lot of people use the B RB style for the extra amount of filtering material it contains.

Thanks. Should I be thinking of anything other than the incorrect dip stick
length? This engine has a shorter oil filter on it than a full quart size.
Is the full quart size the correct filter?
