Can anybody tell me how much engine oil is required to raise the oil level from the bottom of the level sight glass to the top?
Thanks
I never fill to the top, but 100ml used to take it from bottom to 2/3s when I measured. Now I just use an oil can and keep squrting until it’s just over half way (next to the middle metal fin beside the window roughly).
If you want to measure, I used a jug with 500ml in, poured in until I got the level I wanted, then look at what was left in the jug to work out how much went in.

10ml disposable plastic pipette is the answer. No funnel required and a more accurate measurement than squinting at a measuring jug which then needs cleaning.

Very slow though! Maybe a 50ml would speed things up
You can get large colostomy syringes up to about 300ml which are great for getting the oil into the hole.
