    On a ZF 80-1a transmission, what volume of fluid is represented between the low mark and high mark on the dipstick? In other words, if it’s on the low mark, how much fluid is needed to reach the high mark?

    Thanks

    Don’t know if you can get a 100% solid answer on this other than measuring it yourself by starting at the low mark and noting what it takes to reach the high mark. FYI – not recommended to run engine oil or gear oil/fluid at high marks considering the potential for pitch and roll.
