Oil capacity of ph1 172?

[Munchkin]

I'm about to get some Silkolene ProS 5w40 from opieoils in their April offer but I need to know how much oil does a phase 1 172 hold?

Thanks for your help

On a ph 2 172 and 182 its 4.75 litres without changing the oil filter , with a new oil filter its 5.1 litres . Not sure if its the same for the ph 1 172 though ?

I'd put in about 4.75 litres and keep checking the dipstick .

I don't like driving round in a car without being 100% sure of what oil it is running so I'm going to change the filter too! My 10 litres arrived today
