6 liters of Quaker State Synth 5W30 and a Purolator PL14610 filter. Looked for grease nipples and didn't find any lol Guess she's good. Engine is SUPER clean, but have a little bit of slobber coming from drivers side valve cover, one bolt seems to be weeping. And some antifreeze residue near the front of the engine, greenish/white in colour. The drips aren't making it to the shroud, so I know the leaks aren't bad. Just wondering if it's even worth taking things off to do a deeper look see...

Nevermind. Was thinking quarts. Dumb American here can't covert liters to quarts.
