How many litres of oil should I fill my Ford Sierra 5 speed gearbox with?

I have a note of 1.9l, but I seem to remember than mine took less than this. (say 1.2lts)

 

The routine is with the car on a level ground, remove the filler plug and fill until oil starts to seep back out the hole. I found this takes a while and rock the car back and forwards to get the oil to settle as well.

Hope that is of some help.

Yeh, thanks alot, my dad knew about the hole and filling it up until it leaks out, but for some reason he wanted to know if there was an exact amount, but that should help.

 

Thanks Again

My type 9 with Quaife sccr gears took just over 1 litre after getting it back from a rebuild at RRT - I was a bit worried in case it wasn't enough but on pouring the old oil (which I'd left in the drain tray) into the 'new' oil bottles it was just over a litre!
