Gearbox oil quantity

Hi all
Can I ask if anyone has ever successfully manged to fit 1 pint of oil into a wd m20 gearbox

I often wonder if the publications are incorrect

Having rebuilt my gearbox for Normandy - I have got in about 450 cc with a syringe over a few minutes whilst rotating the back wheel
But that’s it - no more it seems

Any others experiences

Put oil in until the level is at the filler screw. You are done. No need to measure the amount.

450cc equates to nearly 16 fluid ounces. There are 20 fl oz in a pint. Ron

Youre right John..The M20 gearbox won't take a pint...Fill until the oil appears in the filler spout on WD types and you're good to go...Ian

I had the same problem recently, the box took only about 430cc. That worried me, but is probably OK.
