don't remember the model of my QL, but for sure it doesn't take much oil...
Are you planning to replace it all, or just top up?
The external small bottle on mine doesn't take more than 100ml I recon.
sorry, probably not very helpful

yes I will be draining and replacing it all as I’ve not changed it since owning the boat since September.

are we meant to do that? Haven't bothered replacing the oil since I fitted the QL in 2015, I'm just checking the level which tbh hasn't moved

Yes any oil should be changed as it loses it properties and no longer gives you the protection that it needs, every 2 seasons I fully change the oil in them.

I like to do them every year, small amount of money for longevity and peace of mind.
