Check out this:
Early CJ5.com > Tech > Engines > 225 V6

That is a great link for almost all 225 questions but I couldn't find where it tells how much oil... Did I miss it?

 

[BrockGrimes]

It's in there some place, my buddy has a '69 CJ5 with the v-6.

Just be glad that it's not like my '99 Mercedes 3.0L inline six. That stupid thing takes 9 quarts of 0W-30 synthetic and a $20 filter!

 

[CJ]

0W-30? Man that is some light oil!

The oil specification is outta of my mind.! Use 5 without filter and 5 with filter. Do tell tell us wat uve got.. I hope ur problem is solved with this easy equation of mine.!

5 with filter.
That's what I used to use in mine when I owned it.
This was 1975;

Yea- but don't tell anyone.
I tried, but they wouldn't rub off on the rocks.

Darn "Petescj: - do you have to use the word "Vintage"?
It was only.........................34 years ago! Shoot- your right!!

Just have to make another comment - I bet that would be a great Jeep print ad!

"Only in a Jeep!"

 

[Petescj]

I thought of that after I posted it , but hey it was complimentary for sure :drool:
