Richard,
  I=E2=80=99m sitting here sort of chuckling because not too long ago a =
list member did extensive testing on dipstick levels under various =
engine angles etc. Some thought he had extensively gone over the top. =
Any yet here it is with you asking a question that his testing had not =
ventured to. Kind of ironic.
  I do not have an answer for you.  However, if any point of the cooler =
is below the cooler lines it would stand to reason that it is not =
draining. It may be that parking on an angle or jacking the car will =
cause it to drain.  It maybe that you will have to remove the cooler to =
see A. if it drains, and B. in filling it independently you can find the =
volume. You could also try blowing air into the cooler (cooler line) and =
see if it drains. A separate catch pan would then indicate the volume.

Subject: [Tigers] MKII oil cooler capacity

This may have been discussed before, I am relatively new to the List.  =
What is the oil cooler capacity?  I am trying to figure out if I am =
using the right quantity of oil in my =E2=80=9867 MKII, which has the =
original oil filter configuration.  I have been putting in 5 quarts.  My =
manual says oil capacity, engine, filter, and oil cooler is 11.4 us =
pints or 5.7 quarts. I don=E2=80=99t think I have the original dipstick, =
so if the oil cooler does not drain how much oil  would be the correct =
amount.
