I have a 2006 Farmtrac 550DTC tractor, it’s the Korean made by LS model, not the Farmtrac that looks like a Ford. It’s has a 4 cylinder Mitsubishi Diesel. I hope I can attach the photos from the top of the engine. Here’s where I need help, I can’t locate my manuals for it. I don’t recall the oil capacity. My aging memory tells me it’s 11-11.5 quarts, but I’m not sure. I tried looking online, but I couldn’t locate it. Does anyone have a manual, and can share the engine oil capacity?

Thank you

The oil capacity for a Mitsubishi 3.3L 4-cylinder diesel engine is 3.7 liters

Thanks Willy. I put 8 quarts in with a new filter, and it’s not even half way between the low and high. That’s why I’m confused. I don’t want to over or under fill it. When I drained it, I measured as best I could what came out at almost 9 quarts. Before draining, I check the oil level and it was between the the low and high mark on the dipstick

Worst case scenario, add till it shows on the dipstick. That's how I've always done.

I would add until its in the middle of high/low then run
for a few minutes and check then add to full mark but
make sure you know how much oil you are adding so
you will know the capacity

I ended up putting in ten quarts. I’ll run a while and recheck. Thanks for your help
