John,

I'm not sure what you mean when you say "oil requirement"... do you mean type, capacity, oil pressure...?

The Handbook says (for all the 4-6 cylinder models):

quote:

...good grade of S.A.E. 30 oil, changing the oil every 50 hours of operation... (also)... pressure at full throttle - 40 pounds



For the model 100 it say "Approx Oil Capcity Qts: 9".
