Did the first oil change on my new 08' Speedster 150 SC with 11 hours .
To draw out the used oil I use an special oil aspirator.
Although the catalog says that with oil filter change the total amount of oil is 4.5 liters I just could put 3.5 lts.
I checked the oil level several times and it was at the max. mark.
Is that normal ?

Thanks

Well i have and 07 Sportster and the book says 4 liters but you can only draw out around 3 or 3.5 liters. So i assume this is normal for Sea-doo engines. Due to having to suck it out and not draining it like a car engine primarily. Of course flushing the engine and then draining the oil helps to get more out. Sure you knew that howsever. Anyways good luck and have fun with your Doo.
