Title: How much oil in a 250 R/E
Post by: JonahCook on March 16, 2011, 02:08:37 PM

Hi all, just wondering if anyone knew how much oil I should put into 1959 Royal Enfield Crusader?
I'm not 100% certain and the high-low on the dipstick is quite a large gap so its not very precise!

Cheers, Jonah :)

Fill the engine till the oil reaches the high mark.

When the oil reaches the low mark, put some more oil in.

On a Royal Oilfield you will neeed to do that quite a lot.

I think I will do that, I was just wondering if there was a specific volume I should be putting in.
Thank you anyway!
