Could someone please list the Fluid Capacities for Sidekick
« on: March 25, 2006, 11:58:27 PM »
If somebody could please quickly list the fluid capacities for the 1989-1996 Sidekick that would be great. It would be awsome if someone could list the capacities for every fluid that is in the machine.

Thank you

5W30 is most reccomended. in really hot weather climates 10W30 works too.

i use 5W30 synthetic.

I have the capacities and recommended oil grades from the Owners Handbook listed on my site under Tech Info. I will have to check and see if they tally with the FSM.

I was living in the BC Interior [ Hot climate ] so I was running Amsoil 20w-50 in the motor for added protection. I also had Amsoil synthetic in all the DIFF'S and the T-CASE AND TRANS for the cold temps that I was expecting to run in. I am not running anything at this time because I was forced to sell my machine.
